Behavioral Differences
The last couple of days we were able to observe birds doing rather different things. The Gull was having a tasty encounter with this late Pigeon. The Common Terns were exchanging love letters in the form of little fishes. The young Great Spotted Woodpecker seems to have been left on his own by the rest of the family. He or she spent the whole day chirping in the trees at the back of our house. At one point it even made an inspection round to the neighbor’s greenhouse..
Close to ‘da House’…
Due to work and other appointments, these days I have to do with birds close to our house. Luckily the Great Spotted Woodpeckers (Grote Bonte Specht) are still around, which made for some minutes of shooting again. This morning I paid a quick visit to the harbor and beach, and the most active ones over there were the Common Terns (Visdief). Always fun to watch them catch their little snacks, and darn – they are quick !
