Hooked on bird photography (and some other subjects)! Canadian near Vancouver in British Columbia. I love re-posting pix by others on my timeline so please check my Media tab to view my photos/videos. Disabled with MS. Happily married!

A grey day in the park yesterday was brightened when a passerby mentioned he had seen an owl a few hundred yards in the direction we were headed and we found it! #birds #photography #birdphotography #Raptors #owl 🦉

This bushtit was not happy with me for missing #BirdswithBerries earlier in the week. (I didn't forget about him, but time just got away from me.) #BirdoftheDay Happy Saturday, BSky friends!

#Bird of the Day: Golden-crowned Sparrow (GCSP)
In my yard, GCSP are winter birds, arriving as the temperatures cool & days shorten. They occupy the shrubberies along the walk from my house to the mailbox, serenading me & surprisingly bold. They’re still here as the early quinces & camellias burst

The #BirdOfTheDay alt theme is #blurred: blurry captures of birds in movement.
This was an experiment, using flash and slow (1/250th) shutter speeds to capture hummingbirds.

Sometimes #ukwildlife other than birds offers to pose for us on our walks. Seals will occasionally pause on their journeys to study us humans #Norfolk grey seals

The alt theme for #birdoftheday is #backlitbeauty with the sun light behind the subject. On a dull November 2025 day, sunlight was in short supply, so here’s a buzzard as captured, then rendered through Lr. It found the beauty.

I was scoping a flock of geese when the water buffalos came over to see what I was doing. I think they must associate humans with food. 😀 #BirdingHungary
