Today's Bird of the Day theme is "JKLMNOP", any bird that has any of these letters at the beginning of their first or second names.

A phone pic of jackdaw, who kept a close eye on me while I ate an ice cream at Strandhill in February.

I took this photo in late winter. I like the red berry above the blue jay's head.

A mocking bird follows a person in the garden. He or she sits mid frame left on a lilac branch. Grey top with white flecks showing on winds. The creamy belly is prominent. It is 3/4 facing left to right.

The leaves are bright green new growth. 

The branches are greyish brown and in the background is some sort of building.

They follow us around in the garden.

They know we are purveyors of fine meal worms.

When we do not purvey they loudly remind us.

A sunlit swan on the calm waters of a large  ornamental pond.

The swan's body is facing toward the left of the frame but its neck is turned so that its head, seen in profile, is looking the opposite way over its back.

Its body is mirrored in the gently rippled water in the foreground but the reflection of its head and neck is blocked by the low stone wall of the pond, which runs along the bottom of the picture. 

In the background, ivy is growing at the edge of the pond on the left and in the centre of the frame, while white bubbling water on the right reveals a water supply inflow.

Today's Bird of the Day theme is "Long Necks"

I passed this swan on the rather large garden pond of a rather large house on the outskirts of Buxton back in 2019.

A Grey Heron in close up, perched on a rock at the shore of a lake. The bird is in side profile; looking to the left of the picture. Its body fills the frame to the right with its neck and head in the upper centre. The sunshine is lighting up the bird and the top of the rock it is standing on. The background is water littered with stubs of reeds

Two Whopper swans floating on an estuary. The birds are close together in the centre foreground and towards the right of frame, both are facing to the left with the nearer bird in front of the other. A long drip of water is falling from the nearer birds beak. The rest of the scene is water with small waves rolling in

A photo of an immature great blue heron (Ardea herodias) in close-up profile, facing toward the right, holding a bundle of dry reed grass in its long, pointed beak. It is a large water bird that has brownish streaky plumage on its long neck, a gray and white face with a small crest, bright yellow eyes, and a long sharp gray and orange beak. Too young to be building a nest, too heron-y to eat grass. In the background green grass, logs, and more brown marsh grasses are visible.

I forgot to mention that the House Martins returned about 10 days ago. Just a couple at first but they're arriving in numbers now and fixing up the various, winter damaged nests around the house.

The good news: his wounds have started to heal nicely, and our team is closely monitoring his other injuries. We’re hopeful that this duck will make a full recovery and get back to the wild soon! πŸ¦†
