MS COP15 reaffirmed that protecting migratory species is a shared responsibility, not a choice.
Millions of birds cross the Middle East each year, facing growing threats.
Protect nature today, secure our future. 🕊️🌿

Little Willy Wagtail (Grey) was taking some flies off dad for dinner, but decided dad's head looked tastier. Once the flies were out of dad's beak he let Willy know he wasn't happy about having his head swallowed. Captured at Yarrow Valley Country Park, Chorley.
Billy Blackcap was looking unhappy after his yearly medical, because the 'Quack' had told him he needed to go on a diet immediately because he was overweight. Captured at RSPB Burton Mere Wetlands, near the England/Wales Border.
Albert & Avril Avocet were out on a date having afternoon tea, but when Albert told her she would have to pay half of the bill she wasn't going to give Albert a 2nd date.
Neil Nuthatch was out of favour with all the other birds because he was always being greedy when it came to picking up something to eat. Billy Blue Tit & Roberta Robin were not going to put up with it and told Neil to leave and not come back. Captured at Yarrow Valley Country Park, Chorley.
Good morning and sorry for the later post for BOTD.
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #BlackHeads, any bird with Black on its head, the Alt Theme is #Grey, birds with Grey Feathers on them.

Barry Black Swan was looking dapper but didn't realise he hadn't put his underwear on before the photographer had started taking his photos for page 7 of the 'Daily Bird' Newspaper. Captured at WWT Slimbridge, Gloucestershire.
As usual both Charlie and Celine Coot were bickering about who would get first servings for breakfast, but Mama Coot just wanted a bit of peace and quiet in the mornings. Captured at WWT Slimbridge, Gloucestershire.
Here's Simon Shelducks looking suited & booted for this year's breeding season, but sadly he couldn't find any females at his local watering hole, then he read the poster and realised it was 'Males Only' night. Captured at WWT Slimbridge, Gloucestershire.
Here's Sally Stock Dove looking a little lost while wandering around the lawn, but if she had gone to 'Pecksavers' she would have seen the Exit Sign was right in front of her. Captured at Forest Farm Nature Reserve, near Cardiff.
Good morning.
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Black&Red, birds with both Black & Red colours on them. The Alt Theme is #Pigeons&Doves any Pigeon or Dove will do.

Deze fraaie bijeneter - gefotografeerd langs de Kunene-rivier in Angola - is al jaren een raadsel voor me. Ik kan geen juiste naam vinden in mijn Afrikaanse vogelboeken. Help! This beautiful bee-eater - photographed along the Kunene River in Angola - has been a mystery to me for years. I can't find a correct name in my African bird books. Help!
