Going to be away for 2 months taking photos in South America. I'll be posting a lot of photos once I get home.

A common species here, but loved the light on this one. Not many people take photos of House Sparrow's in the UK, so maybe it becomes rarer online ๐Ÿ˜….

Condors are very heavy birds compared to Frigates! I don't think he's correct. www.discoverwildlife.com/animal-facts...

Shows how light they are for their size

Yea, Frigatebirds are very light considering their size and have 2.2m+ wings. They are insanely fast when they need to be. Albatross are much larger/heavier body wise.

A huge Magnicent Frigatebird flying. This one has large brown wings, a white beak and a black head with a blue ring around the eye.

A Magnificent Frigatebird! Love these huge birds, they float in the sky like Batman ready to pounce. They have the largest wing-to-body ratio of any bird. The picture was taken in the Caribbean.

A portrait of an iridescent Rook. Rooks have a distinctive beak and have been associated with death. The Rook was in mid-blink and very close.

Love Rook's for portraits, they have a gnarly metal look to them. Mid-blink for an even more scary look. They have a beautiful iridescence in sunshine!

If you see a Swan in this pose, back up! This one was in attack mode, heading straight towards a Goose it wasn't happy with.

A Grey Heron portrait. Heron's always make good subjects to photograph. I took this on the Bude Canal in Cornwall.
