Jim Howard-Birt 🐦📸: Photos@ohai.socialOPtoPhotography@fedia.io•Good evening friends of the birds. Hoping you all have a great weekend.
1·4 months ago@[email protected] how awesome. Glad you experienced some wonderful nature with your weekend…
Jim Howard-Birt 🐦📸: Photos@ohai.socialOPtoPhotography@fedia.io•Every hide we went into today (5) at Welney Wetlands, had Barn Swallows nesting.
1·5 months ago@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] yeah, here in UK swallows are known as Barn Swallows, i guess due to their love of outbuildings. If you have a shed, leave a window removed, you’ll probably get swallow nesting if you have them in the area

2·5 months ago@demiguru i’m kneeling down at my patio door, the birds are 4 meters from me…
we have worked hard to make are garden a safe environment for birds, they are not bothered by me of my family, they will happily land on the grass even if I am in the garden

@[email protected] I love them, great little birds. I have a collection of them here:
@[email protected] z 600 pf
@[email protected] My mum lives in North Devon, and I will be visiting my brother in Cornwall in a month’s time. Yep, I love that part of the world…
@[email protected] I’m in the UK (never been to the US). I live in Northamptonshire, but travel on weekends to different locations around the UK (just back from South Wales). During the week I work as an Analyst for a University local to me). Photography for me is just a hobby.
@NyakoKitty I wouldn’t say fabulous, but I’ve enjoyed the last 3 years learning and being close to nature.
The more photos you take and the more time spent in nature the more you learn about bird/wildlife habits and in tur you get more opportunities.
@[email protected] I am glad you did. I will follow your photos too.
@[email protected] Thank you for the kind words. They have improved a lot since I started on here in Nov 2022.
Jim Howard-Birt 🐦📸: Photos@ohai.socialOPtoPhotography@fedia.io•This one is a Common Buzzard, such a great looking bird
1·5 months ago@[email protected] nice. Not so hard for me, I think we just have the one kind of Buzzard here in UK. (Happy to be corrected)
Jim Howard-Birt 🐦📸: Photos@ohai.socialOPtoPhotography@fedia.io•Here is another close up of a Red Kite in flight from today
1·5 months ago@[email protected] that’s nice. I get loads of kites simular to that. One day you’ll catch one lower and in perfect light and the result will be magic. I take 100’s of photos, and only keep a small number of them. The more you go out and take photos, the more opportunities you’ll get to see wonderful birds in different situations. Now and then you’ll get one that is perfect.

@kolombiken taking photos of birds is wonderful, sharpness is not essential. I have to travel to see them, cos I have none anywhere near me. Always like to see them.
