Nice images for #BirdOfTheDay Rob - a very elegant GWE. I thought I disturbed this Little Egret by peering through the grass but I see that it wasn't happy with the lurking Grey Heron! A twofer #EgretsAndHerons and #FlyDay. #Birds #BirdTherapy #NatureCantWait #UkWildlife #wildlifephotography #ECK

Did you watch Dirty Business? I can't believe how much water companies have gotten away with. They're putting profit before public health - it’s a scandal and the Government MUST take action! you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...

@alan678.bsky.social has chosen today's excellent #BirdOfTheDay theme to be #EmeraldBackdrop and I hope this Whitethroat fits the brief. (If he says not there's always the 2nd one I've posted! 😉😂) #Birds #BirdTherapy #NatureCantWait #StateofNature2023 #UkWildlife #wildlifephotography #EastCoastKin

Nice #BirdOfTheDay set Rob. I'm copying your Common Tern for a twofer on #Grey and #RedBeaks, seen hovering like a Kestrel before a successful dive into the River Clyde near Erskine. #Birds #BirdingScotland #BirdTherapy #NatureCantWait #StateofNature2023 #UkWildlife #wildlifephotography #ECK

Alan HGood morning birders, today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme: #CHE Cormorants, Herons and Egrets Alt #Memories: bird captures you have reason to remember. Had you been trying to get the capture for a long time? Did you fall into a bush? First time seeing the bird? No AI. #birds #photography #ECK
Great #BirdOfTheDay theme Rob - you like to challenge us - and smashing set of images to show us how it's done. I've also gone for #OneTwoThreeFour with this set of Redshanks. #Birds #BirdingScotland #BirdTherapy #NatureCantWait #StateofNature2023 #UkWildlife #wildlifephotography #EastCoastKin
Rob Crank PhotographyGood morning folks. Today's #BirdOfTheDay main theme is a tough one with #OneTwoThreeFour, 4 photos with 1, 2, 3, 4 birds, with each photo being the same bird/s. The Alt theme is #ForJanet, any of the Robin Species will do. #birds #ECK @rspb.bsky.social #CanonR5mkii #ukbirding #naturephotography
Who can blame anything for #SittingDownOnTheJob in this weather?! Nice #BirdOfTheDay theme and set of images as always Rob. One of our new House sparrow brood must have found it all too much and had to sit down! #Birds #BirdingScotland #NatureCantWait #UkWildlife #wildlifephotography #ECK

Nice selection of #Gulls Rob for your #BirdOfTheDay theme. I saw these two Common Gulls on the Firth of Clyde near Erskine recently. #Birds #BirdingScotland #BirdTherapy #NatureCantWait #StateofNature2023 #UkWildlife #wildlifephotography #EastCoastKin

That’s a lovely #ScreenFiller on #BirdOfTheDay Alan. I recently made it to @rspb.bsky.social’s fantastic @rspbbemptoncliffs.bsky.social reserve and saw this magnificent Gannet which I’m also sneakily posting early for #SuperSeaBirdSunday. #ECK #Birds #NatureCantWait #UkWildlife #wildlifephotography
