Blue Tit Bathtime, I always try to capture them at their best.

Blue Tit perched on a water filled brown gutter in the process of shaking the water out of its feathers after bathing, resulting in a a very scruffy looking bird with feathers sticking out in all directions.

The Island III/IX.

Métis-sur-Mer, August 2026.

#sea #seascape #island #MeerMittwoch #SeaWednesday #birds #photography

Photograph of a seaside landscape, showing a rocky island in the distance and some rocks sticking out from the water, on which sea birds are resting. The sky is pale blue with white clouds and it reflects on the wrinkled sea. The sun hidden behind a cloud emits a very white light and makes the horizon behind the island shine, like a white line. The light illuminates the island, rocks and birds from behind, making only their black silhouettes visible.

Photographie d'un paysage de bord de mer, montrant une île rocheuse au loin et quelques rochers dépassant de l'eau, sur lesquels sont posés des oiseux marins. Le ciel est bleu pâle avec des nuages blancs et il se reflète sur la mer à peine ridée. Le soleil caché derrière un nuage émet une lumière très blanche et fait briller l'horizon derrière l'île, comme une ligne blanche. La lumière éclaire l'île, les rochers et les oiseaux par l'arrière, ne rendant visibles que leurs silhouettes noires.

35° and rising. Very little tad of breeze not enough to cool anything. Shimmer of heat rises from roofs.

Local forecast has it for 38°+ this weekend. Mid September. Swallows and Martins still around. Scores of stork nests of which 2 occupied, one each, the rest empty.

Nearest city is 20 miles away and it has the major oil/facility and port. Pipes, tubes, transporting some sort gas which must be kept at -150° or else the gas will ignite, running above the ground mostly. Just imagine... a tsunami...

# Looking for camera advice

Hey bird photographers - I currently use a Nikon CoolPix B600. I'm assuming I don't have to tell you about its shortcomings. I'm interested in upgrading to a DSLR - thinking not mirrorless to keep costs down.

I know ideally I'd want a 100-400mm or 100-500mm lens for bird photography, but that might break the budget

Also, considering starting with a 300mm lens, which with a 1.5 sensor crop factor could give you the effect of a longer zoom lens. Not sure what that does to quality though. I'm not looking to sell 24 x 36 prints - photos are just for me or to share online.

Given the above, hit me with your favorite body/lens combos that I should look at. The budget is in the $1000 neighborhood—pre-owned is likely the route here.

I See Something

Here’s a laughing gull (Leucophaeus atricilla) I photographed at Gulfport, Mississippi. It looks like it spotted something in the water — and in fact, moments later it flew down and snatched a shrimp right out of the shallows.

Step into a world where even the smallest moments—like the glint in a bird's eye—tell their own story.

#photo #photography #photographer #photographylovers #wildlife #nature #bird #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdphotography #shorebirds #laughinggull

"A laughing gull sweeps across the sky in mid‑flight, captured from behind and slightly below, giving the viewer the sense of looking up at a bird passing overhead. Its wings stretch outward in a wide, graceful arc, each feather fanned and layered with crisp precision. The tips of the wings are dark, almost black, contrasting sharply with the bright white of the gull’s body.

The bird’s tail feathers flare slightly, forming a neat triangle of white edged in black. Its legs tuck tightly beneath it, small and streamlined, adding to the sense of effortless motion. The background is a smooth, pale gray sky — empty, quiet, and uncluttered — which makes the gull’s form stand out like a clean silhouette carved against soft light.

The image feels serene and airy, as if the gull is gliding through a calm morning sky, wings steady, body balanced, moving with the easy confidence of a bird that knows the wind intimately." - Microsoft Copilot
