The Blackcap!

Found the remains of an egg in the garden - any idea what it is? Blackbird? Starling? Dunnock? (We get all of those - East Anglia, UK)

An American Goldfinch drinks water from a small puddle on a wooden floor. Autumn colored orange and yellow leaves lie on the floor.

"Winter Song" is my new #painting about those bright winter days of lemon and pink skies, when the air is clear and cold, and the #birdsong rings louder than ever.

As well as the little robin belting out his sweet song, I've included other winter birds: fieldfare, waxwing, redwing, and (my favourites) starlings.

Thanks for looking. 🙏

The same lies here in #Germany. No windmills back in the 70ies, when I started with #birding as hobby. Three breeding pairs of #WhiteTailedEagle in the state of #SchleswigHolstein, where I lived. Now more than 120 pairs. The same with other large birds, #Osprey, #RedKite, #BlackKite, #Spoonbill, #WhiteStork, #GreyHeron well increasing. #GreatEgret and #LittleEgret as new breeding species. The same tendency in #Denmark. Lots of large windmills now, great birds increasing.

Borbness is more than a matter of shape. It's a matter of attitude.
