Visayan Fantail from the Philippines on ebird by Jackson D Souza for #BirdsSeenIn2026
A baby monkey plenty of curiosity sorrounded by all the green leaves. They're so curious and very used to people, maybe too much. His pretty face is totally chef by the sunlight, while he's looking where will be the next game he'll do
A wonderful scarce blue tiger butterfly, just resting on a branch. His wings show a wonderful pattern of pale blue stripes and dots, while the body is covered with white dots. The deep green of the forest still makes it more beautiful
An amazing crested serpent eagle with a funny expressive face. I got this photo right on the moment that he was screaming to other eagles of same specie. He's perched on a dry branch of a giant tree, showing those wonderful yellow eyes. The brown feathers covers it's body, but black on the head.
The common hill myna, perched on a big branch covered by small green leaves. It's orange beck is open, with those metallic dark blue feathers covering the body. Amazing and super intelligent bird, can imitate even better than parrots the human voice
I've soo many amazing photos to share that I don't know which one to share π Malaysia and its amazing biodiversity πΈπΏπ·

Common Green Magpie, colourful green bird with brown wings, long tail, bright yellow crown, black face, and bright red eye ring, bill and legs. Perched among foliage, turning towards us.

@alan678.bsky.social's theme today is #Corvidae. Happily #magpies are members of that family and I recently had some great encounters with Common Green Magpie at Tanah Rata #CameronHighlands #Malaysia. Such a contrast to the #crows!

Iconic staredown by a baby Eagle owl, very fluffy, with orange eyes, sitting on top of an old building.
Dat war schon extrem sweet letzten Sommer.

The second (blue morph) of the pair of visiting Snow Geese among the Whooper Swans by the River Sullane, Co. Cork 09/03/26 #RareBirds #BirdsSeenIn2026
A medium sized bird with brilliant dark blue wings, black head with a feathered crown, and black beak and eyes is perching in the the middle of an open bush. The background is a mottled and diffuse green. Several branches are visible behind the bird. The branch the bird is perched on is in the foreground and out of focus.

My favorite winter peanut cacher, a Steller's Jay (Cyanocitta stelleri).
A recent, and now regular visit to our garden, is a jay. Yep, a chuffin' jay, and I'm tickled pink. This morning Jonathan. Yep, named it. πTried, his best to get food from an inappropriate bird feeder. It was in an out quicker than an American F 35 stealth fighter jet. #birds π¦π

Two mute swans feed in the foreground of a shallow salt pan while a flock of willets fly in the background.
Iβm hitting the alt theme of #LongNeck for the #BirdOfTheDay with this pair of mute swans that are casually ignoring the willets flying around them. There may be other species wading or flying around the shot as well.
#Corvidae is todayβs main theme. #Birds #BirdSky πͺΆ

Red-winged blackbird perfectly perched on the top of a cattail.
Red-wing blackbird doing what a blackbird does. Do I have a lot of images of them perched on cattail tops? Will I say I don't need more? Will I take a lot more?
Yes!

Three pale blue star-like Chionodoxa flowers with dark blue stripes.
It's a miracle - the slimey plant assassins of the night have left the Chionodoxa flowers alone this spring #GardensHour π±

A few people have asked about my camellia regime. I water throughout the year with a last good soak Sept/ Oct. Also give an ericaceous feed once a year. If yellow leaves or blossom drop problems, I make up a sulphur mix in a watering can & completely drench the foliage & soil. π± #GardensHour
