One of the great philosophical ponderings of the day, if not of the age, there Alan! 😉
Going for a #BirdOfTheDay double dip here with a Yellowhammer #BirdInABush showing of its amazing #Feathers.

Walk to school? Looxury! We had to crawl backwards over ….! Great shot Alan.
Here’s a Waxwing in the rain for #BirdOfTheDay. Eating doesn’t stop for the #weather!

Had a blast today birding up the Poudre Canyon! Saw my first Northern Pygmy Owl and some other great birds! #birds #birdtherapy
Why on earth did that fish jump in to its bill like that?! 😉 Great timing Alan.
For #BirdOfTheDay this Grey Heron clearly enjoyed its #snacks but managed this one eventually!

I'm a bit late to the party today Alan - that's a lovely lit shot. For today's #BirdOfTheDay #PerfectLighting theme I've just got a Robin but I think the light brings out its plumage, colour and shape really well.
