Above you see a photo that shows one of our chickens. Chickens are not the type of animals that are called cute very often, not so often like cats, dogs or other pets, but the more I saw our chickens, the more I thought they do actually look cute too. I like them so much because the sounds they make are funny and when I enter our chicken enclosure, they follow me with each step. I do also like the picture I shot, I hope you do like it too.

I did put together a gallery of photos that I shot at the Schellbruch, I noticed many birds showed flocking or swarm behaviour and I want to show you the photos. It was pretty interesting to see all the birds, and to hear them, in flocks they are quite loud, it’s really a nature spectacle and I enjoyed this much. When I was there, I met a nature park ranger who was counting the birds, I am sad that I didn’t ask how he is doing it, but while we talked about other things, he was often looking through his … Continue reading Schellbruch Bird Flocks
Here is another photo I took two weeks ago or so. I think the photo is good enough to upload it but overall I am not satisfied with the quality. The squirrel was too far away and I had to crop the photo to get closer to the squirrel. Cropping does often work very well but I think the image in this post is a little too noisy. I tried to reduce noise with Lightroom but then it looked too blurred. However, it’s not too bad, you can at least see the squirrel very well. Continue reading Squirrel On A Tree Branch
It’s some weeks ago when I took the photo you see in this post, I actually thought that I need to delete the image. The photo was bad as I couldn’t zoom in enough to show the bird but today I noticed that the photo was sharp enough even after cropping with Photoshop. The result is that I can now basically show you the photo as if I would have had a tele lens on my camera. I think the bird should be a common blackbird, they have orange beaks and orange rings around the eyes. Continue reading Common Blackbird Photo
My half-brother is here on a visit and I mentioned it anywhere else, he has all kind of small animals like mice, bunnies and so. This time he didn’t come for a visit without his bunnies. He did let them run in our garden, I thought this would be crazy even if the garden is fenced, but he said he would do that at home in his garden too. However, I had my camera with me and shot all kind of photos. As always I have stored them in my folders and will upload them over time as I prefer … Continue reading Bunny With Blue Eyes
With this post I want to show you some other photos of the same squirrel I uploaded some days ago. I prefer to upload the most funny photos of a set later, so, with this post you see the last photos of that squirrel. In the other post the squirrel was on the ground, but some seconds later it jumped on a fence and I had to react immediately. Although I discovered already many advanced settings of my D7100, situations come up where you don’t have time to adjust anything. At some point I will probably learn to do this … Continue reading Squirrels, Masters of Balance
