Three fluffy gryphon nestlings with grayish fur and feathers, rest in a dark cave. One looks up with bright blue eyes, while the other sleeps. Their gray coloration serves as natural camouflage for their environment before they mature and turn bluish.

I was advised to create a separate tag for my griffin setting, I guess I need to add it on previous too
#TerraVentosa - name of the mountains, translates as "Windy Lands"

Field Frame Friday: What to do when you find a baby bird Earlier this week, I stumbled upon a small surprise in the middle of a busy downtown walkway: a baby bird, alone looking up at me, smaller than the palm of my hand. I wasn’t sure what to do at firs…

See a baby bird on the ground and not sure what to do? 🐤 They may not be abandoned! Sabrina Seaborn-Mederos explains what’s actually helpful and when it’s time to step in.

Wood Thrush nestling sits in the nest facing right. Its mouth is open and a yellow tongue is stuck out. There is a twig obscuring much of the bird's head.

We have babies! There is at least one Wood Thrush nestling at John C Whitehead Preserve in Little Compton RI. Sorry for the stinky photo but the lighting was troubling at best. #woodthrush #nestling #bird #birdphotography #johncwhiteheadpreserve #littlecompton

Der frühe Vogel lässt es heute ruhig angehen und genießt den Tag. Der #Nestling hat ein super Frühstück gezaubert - der perfekte Start in den Tag. #vuw

A cute little scene from my walk this morning. It was a beautiful spring morning. #americanrobin #nestling #aurora #arboretum #turtleisland #birds #spring #motherandchild

A large grey heron with white and black head markings and a black shoulder patch overlooks 3 nestlings with similar markings but pinfeathers and limited feather covering. . All settled in green foliage with a grey blue background. Taken at the Venice Rookery in 2009 everything looked great for this group of 3 nestlings and a parent until I partially saw one of the nestlings end up on the ground beneath the Brazilian peppers. The nests were on a small island in a drainage pond that held a medium large gator. I do not know if the gator could routinely get up the sides of the small island but the nestling would be ignored and at a minimum pass from starvation. Three eggs in a Great Blue Heron clutch getting this far seemed rare in the ones I saw, although these three looked quite healthy.

Cropped version of the first image. See the story there.

April is the cruelest month, breeding lilacs out of the dead land...

The babies have grown and are getting feathery! #birds #nuthatch #nestling

Matt aber motiviert. Gleich geht es mit dem #Nestling zusammen ins Kino. Das Wetter ist im Grunde zu Schade, jedoch die für uns letzte Gelegenheit #StarWars Episode III gemeinsam im Kino zu erleben. #VaterFreuden

One was not moving, and was cold to the touch. Farewell, little one. Your two siblings are in good hands, resting in the box my contributor copies of Rare Bit Fiends was shipped in.

Ein Basketballspieler in blauer Spielkleidung mit der Nummer 10 und der Aufschrift „TSV Wieblingen“ auf dem Rücken läuft mit dem Ball über das Spielfeld. Der Boden ist mit typischen Linien einer Sporthalle markiert, und der Spieler ist in Bewegung begriffen, vermutlich auf dem Weg zum Korb.

Der frühe Vogel ist wieder als #BasketballDad unterwegs, schaut dem #Nestling zu und genießt das Wochenende. #vuw

Entspannt mit dem #Nestling ins Kino. #Minecraft ruft. #VaterFreuden #FamilyLife #Entspannung

Der Sonntag neigt sich dem Ende zu. Ich sitze mit dem #Nestling am Tisch und wir planen beide unsere Woche. #Zeitmanagement

Zusammen Erlebnisse schaffen. Heute war ich mit dem #Nestling im Kino und wir haben uns die Aufnahme des Image Dragons Konzert in der L. A. Hollywood Bowl angeschaut. Echt stark von den Aufnahmen. Jetzt darf nur noch das Konzert im Sommer mit Tickets klappen. #VaterFreuden

Was für ein großartiger Frühlingstag! 🌞
Perfektes Timing für eine kleine #Auszeit – ich schnapp mir den #Nestling und wir gönnen uns ein Eis.

Einfach mal kurz raus, durchatmen und das Leben genießen. Ein Hoch auf flexible Arbeit!

Feierabend. Die letzten Geburtstagsvorbereitungen sind abgeschlossen. Bin auf die Augen vom #Nestling morgen gespannt. Muss ich mir langsam etwas anderes als #Nestling einfallen lassen...?

Was gibt es besseres als Lob vom #Nestling. Ich mache die besten Stampfkartoffeln. 😍 #VaterFreuden

Male Great Horned Owl (GHO). This is on the main road in Fort Clinch State Park, Florida, a Live Oak Canopy with hanging moss everywhere so it is quite dark necessitating some aggressive editing with Affinity Photo (think Photoshop). In addition the bird was at least 40 yards away so aggressive cropping occurred as well. Given that. Not bad. A large horned owl with horizontal stripes across his chest below a white tie like collar with a brown outline about his face into his ears. He is sitting on a short 4inch diameter (+/-) broken off branch of the live Oak that supports him. Moss frames him.

After years of watching/photographing birds I have only seen 2 now 3 owl species. Fort Clinch has a recurrent nesting pair that I caught digitally today & yesterday
