A great tit, a small bird with a black cap, black chin, and a black stripe running down the front of its yellowish belly. It has white cheeks and blue-gray wings bearing a white stripe. This one is perched in a conifer, well shaded, so the blue is less apparent. Its beak is pointed toward the camera, and the twig it sits on is angled from lower left to upper right. This is framed on the left and right sides by the iron bars of a garden fence. A great tit, a small bird with a black cap, black chin, and a black stripe running down the front of its yellowish belly. It has white cheeks and blue-gray wings bearing a white stripe. This one is peaking out from under some serrated leaves as it inspects the photographer from its perch on a twig. A wood pigeon, a gray bird with yellow eyes and a ring of white feathers around the back of its neck, sits on the metal railing of a building’s balcony. Below and to the right is the pigeon’s reflection in the window. A Eurasian blackbird, a black thrush with yellow beak, perched on a thin, curving branch. Its body faces away and to the right, while its head is turned away and to the left. Above it is the overcast sky, and below the foliage of its chosen roost tumbles down like the plumage of a peacock.

A Eurasian magpie: A black bird with white wing markings near its body, and its longest wing feathers are white inside, as if outlined. This bird is in flight, swooping from right to left as it leaves a steel structure which is barely in frame. A great cormorant, a large water bird with dark coloring with a bit of blue and (gold or green) iridescence, and white and yellow in its beak, is flying over the water of a river in Berlin. It moves left to right with purpose, its wingtips inches above the water. In the background and out of focus, there is a mute swan resting on the water. Its white body, long neck, and black facial markings are unmistakable. A Eurasian coot, a darkly colored bird that, from this angle, appears gray in its body, black in its head and neck, with a white beak that appears to extend into a bony plate on its forehead. This one is on the surface of a river, swimming toward the camera, but with its head turned to keep an eye on the photographer. A common nightingale, a small, brown bird, with a lighter, speckled belly and throat, perched on the thorny branch of a green bush. The bird is behind the thorny branch, but has just spotted the photographer, and is an instant from flying away.
