Deep in the valley of the Hoëgne, where water carves its way through layered rock and moss.
I used a long exposure here to soften the rushing current and let the stream draw its own lines through the frame.

Long exposure photograph of the Hoëgne river in the Hoge Venen, Belgium, showing silky flowing water winding between layered rock walls, moss covered stones and autumn leaves, with a wooden walkway visible along the hillside.

A split second of pure precision.
This Caspian Tern (Reuzenstern in Dutch) had just surfaced and tossed its catch into the air, perfectly timed before swallowing it mid flight.

A Caspian Tern flying against a clear blue sky with wings fully extended, a freshly caught fish suspended above its open red bill as it prepares to catch and swallow it in mid air.

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Birds&Bugs any bird and bug in one capture.
A Green Bee-eater balancing effortlessly on a wire, a freshly caught insect still in its bill.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #StareDown, birds looking right at you. This Common Kestrel locks eyes from its perch, perfectly still and razor focused, as if weighing up whether I am worth its attention.

Good morning everyone.
The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #birdsandberries.
Bohemian Waxwings feasting on rose hips and dark berries, a classic winter pairing where colour and behaviour come together.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Reflections. Two Black-tailed Godwits share a quiet moment at first light, their reflections stretching across the calm water.

#BlackTailedGodwit #Godwit #birds #birdphotography #SonyAlpha #EastCoastKin
Two Black-tailed Godwits wading in shallow, calm water during golden hour, with clear reflections visible beneath them. One bird has its wings partly raised while the other walks forward, both mirrored in the smooth surface.

De zeearend, 20 jaar in Nederland en nu al 50 paartjes. Geweldig!

nos.nl/l/2600706
De zeearend viert feest: jarig en succesvoller dan ooit
In 2006 broedde de zeearend voor het eerst in de Oostvaardersplassen. Twintig jaar later groeit de populatie nog altijd.
