A red squirrel climbing through a hazel bush with curled green leaves, its curious face peeking out while its body stretches along the branches, set against a softly blurred background.

They've been looting hazel bush for weeks now. Not a lot left!

A juvenile European robin perched on a hazel branch, surrounded by green leaves and unripe hazelnuts, set against a soft, dark green background.

And this, my friends, is a young robin. At least, I think it is. The younglings are sometimes hard to identify. But the breast feathers should indicate that this one is indeed a robin.

A small chiffchaff with olive-brown feathers perched on the edge of a round, dark surface. The bird is facing slightly to the right with its legs slightly apart and its head tilted, giving it an alert and curious expression. The background is softly blurred in neutral tones.

This tiny chiffchaff has become a regular at the bird bath

A black-and-white close-up photo of a small bird, likely a marsh tit or willow tit, bathing in a shallow dish of water. The bird's feathers are fluffed and wet, and droplets splash around it, capturing a sense of motion. The image conveys a tender, candid moment in nature.

Still trying to improve my bw photography!
