The blue tits were looking for a "home, sweet home" already...
I think there are some numbers more to the right. But that is also the right edge of the pic. So I can't tell you the full address... And the new address will be 81
I was shooting something different far behind when this Red-vented Bulbul appeared right in front of me (merely 4.5 meters!). Couldn't resist mostly because of the background. The original shots are not framed like these - I had to cut the frame in order to get them in the proper size for CR.
Black-backed woodpecker, female.
Not that common this far south (North American Arctic is its summer home). Does nor bore holes in the wood, but rather strips the tree of its bark, as it can easily be seen here.
Great horned owl (I think). Taken at Canadian Raptor Conservancy. Canon 5ds.
Thanks Click! Despite high ISO and a miserably cloudy day...Nice shot!
Lot of details in that close up.
It could be Richard's pipit just as well.The Meadow is much more boldly/distinctly streaked on the back. And why not a Tree Pipit - the lower mandible looks more pinkish than yellow (but that one is also more distinctly streaked on the back and the color may vary on the photos because of the light/white balance).
Funny - I have seen the Water Pipit only at high elevations (South-East Europe, ~2300 meters above the see level but it can go lower or higher than this) and it's non-migrating species there - except in the altitudes in the winter!)
Egret: "I'll get you, fish!"
I really like the bright reflections in the dark water.
Do you think, I should have framed the bird closer?

Thanks! Amazing birds. I'd never been this close to them before - huge wing span!Nice shot. I love seeing the owl with its wings spread like this.
Nope! Even my suggestion for Tree Pipit was wrong by the same reason: your Pipit has dark legs! The only Pipit similar to the Water Pipit and with dark legs (I mean in Europe and your region) is the Rock Pipit - in Scandinavia!!!It could be Richard's pipit just as well.
I see some letters to the left corner of the photo so, the full address should be: Maximilian street (?) #81! If you are in doubt just ask the bird - it will know better!I think there are some numbers more to the right. But that is also the right edge of the pic. So I can't tell you the full address
