🪶 @alan678.bsky.social’s theme for today’s #BirdOfTheDay is #OddCouples. But I’m going with the alternative of #Urban.

A Grey Heron hunting in an Urban Park in Cork City.

Oh I’ve loads of those too! This one is quite heavily cropped but I’ll make more attempts this summer.
Swallows are as difficult if not more so but I’m stubborn about these things; I’ll get one eventually

They’re a great bird. Very photogenic and like to pose on posts and fences

🪶 So I believe in the U.S. today is something called #SuperbOwlSunday; a tradition I can get behind!

A portrait of an Eurasian Eagle Owl I took at a falconry.

BTW being a birder I guess I’m going for the hawks tonight!
