Above is another entry for my common blackbird gallery. The original image was not very good, that means there was heavy editing done. That included almost everything like cropping, tone editing, sharpening and noise reduction. It’s not perfect quality but … Continue reading Common Blackbird Again
Above you can see a carrion crow (Corvus corone). We have quite a lot of them here in Germany. Where I live there are places where you could easily find thousands of them in threes with hundreds of nests. I remember when I was in Reinfeld and a storm came up, sitting with my uncle near the window we saw how the sky became black because thousands of them ascended from the bush that was hundred meters away from our windows. I really mean the sky became black, it was a spectacle of nature. We thought they could feel electricity, … Continue reading A Carrion Crow
Here is a photo of a common blackbird again. I could get quite close with my Tamron 70-300mm lens, but I cropped the image to get even closer. The image quality didn’t suffer too much, I like how it turned out. It’s interesting, because you would think they always look the same, and they basically do, but since I shot many photos of common blackbirds, I start to notice differences. Yeah, they are black, but the body shape is often very different, or the feather tone can vary or the length of the beak for example. The bird in the … Continue reading Common Blackbird Close-Up
Above you can see two photos of one and the same sparrow. I shot the photo during one of my hikes and I think it should be a female house sparrow. Sometimes I do find it very difficult to get … Continue reading Sparrow On A Branch
Above you can see a photo of a great tit bird (Parus major). It’s not too difficult to find them where I live. Of course it’s possible to find them in the nature, but sometimes you also spot them in districts of the city. I shot the photo of this bird for example in a town near a front yard of a house. They are often in gardens. Anyway, since they are tiny, it’s sometimes still a challenge to find out where the bird call comes from. By the way, I found a YouTube video of the great tit call, … Continue reading Great Tit Bird Photo
Here is a small gallery of some photos that I shot during my time in Reinfeld. I saw this cute bird walking up and down on a tree, and later I found out that it was a Nuthatch. The photos … Continue reading A Small Nuthatch Bird On A Tree
