A wood duck drake in wonderful morning sunlight. My first-of-season sighting of this beautiful duck. Lake Fairfax Park, Reston, Virginia, USA. 18-MAR-2025. #birds #birdphotography #naturephotography

A wood duck swimming in a small lake, with a rippled reflection in the water. This is a very colorful duck with a green head accented with black and white and red eyes. The neck and chest are a reddish brown, the back is very dark brown or black, and the sides are a yellowish tan.

Met a new baby magpie friend this morning

A juvenile Australian magpie standing on a street kerb, facing away from the camera, looking back, with bread crumbs on their beak (somebody dropped their sandwich this morning, I guess)

In Sichtweite meines Heimbüros wollen zwei #Elstern zu Eltern werden. Sie schleppen Zweige von weither heran, um sie akribisch korrekt in ihr Kugelnest zu flechten. Gelegentlich paaren sie sich auf dem Nest, begutachten es dann von oben nochmal genau und fliegen wieder neue Zweige sammeln.

Eine Elster fliegt von ihrem halbfertigen Nest weg.

Eine Elster verbaut einen Zweig im Nest, die andere sitzt darüber und schaut in die Ferne.

Zwei Elstern stehen auf ihrem Nest und weben neue Zweige in die Konstruktion ein.

Killdeer nest on the ground, and when predators approach, the adult pretends to have a broken wing, moves away from the nest and makes pathetic cries, hoping to lure the would-be attacker into chasing them instead of the young.

Close-up of a worried-looking plover with broad brown and white bands, a short, thick, dark bill, and a red eye ring around a disproportionately large eye.

White-throated Dipper, with reflection.
I had extremely low light for this shot so had to push the ISO quite a bit, and remove some detritus from the background in post-processing.

A dipper sits on a stick in a stream and directly below him can be seen his reflection mirrored in the surface of the water

Une aigrette garzette (sorte de petit héron tout blanc avec un bec noir et une petite aigrette sur la tête) qui est à l'affût dans les roseaux d'un étang. Son image se reflète dans l'eau

Une aigrette garzette de très près avec son oeil jaune clair et son bec sombre entre le noir, le bleu et l'ardoise. Elle regarde vers le bas à l'affût, avec son cou courbé près à se détendre pour pêcher.
