This Common Starling at Mudeford Quay (UK) was giving me some chat about more food😁 One of the few places where there are reasonable numbers of them. Amazing to think they were one of the commonest garden birds. #birds #birdphotography #birdsseenin2025 #canonphotography

Whilst this male Shoveler appeared to be asleep it definitely had an eye out for danger. Beautiful reflection on the very still water at Clot Del Galvany. #birds #birdphotography #birdsseenin2025 #Alicante #canonphotography

Fabulous Slender-billed Gull at Santa Pola salt pans. Love the pink underparts. This one is ringed - probably locally. #birds #birdphotography #birdsseenin2025 #Alicante #canonphotography

And this is the final species count for the #BirdsSeenIn2025 challenge!

We overtook 2 of 4 years, with 6400 bird species in 2025. This is a bit more than half of the total number of bird species in the world!

I am really glad to have been able to witness and share all of these lovely pictures!
