Great Blue Heron apparently was hunting the brushy shoreline on the neighborhood gravel pond…I didn’t know it was there, so we actually startled each other…

Large flock of pigeons in the neighborhood…fun to watch them in flight from their home base to the south of us to a favorite power line perch north on this property…

I'm not one of those ppl who can film an emergency. I have to put my cell down&focus. Ducky #minicallduck got caught up in #fishing line. I panicked &I usually don't. It's bc he is very hyper! He ended up getting it off himself! #stopduckdumping #MallardMonday #birdsofbluesky #birdsoftheworld #ducks

What bird is this? 🤔 (See alt text for clue) 🌍 #whatbird | #birdsoftheworld | #birds

A close-up photo of a small bird (11 to 13 cm (4.3 to 5.1 in) long) perched on a thin tree branch against a soft green background. It has brown and white plumage with a distinctive, patterned black-and-white crest standing tall on its head, black eye markings, and a small black bib.

Clue: "Look closely at my crowned hairstyle—I'm a pint-sized forest resident named after my most standout head feature!"

Fun Fact: In the UK, these birds are almost entirely restricted to the ancient Caledonian pine forests of the Scottish Highlands, where they frequently hoard pine seeds and insects in bark crevices to save for winter.

Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1)

Fun fact: They are strictly monogamous and form lifelong pair bonds in the wild, sharing parenting duties meticulously.

As I was sitting there I played a game of Spot the Great Tit (No, I wasn't the object! 😁). A pair were determined not to come this side of the Elderberry tree I was sitting next to. This was the best shot I managed. Can you spot it? #greattit #elderberry #birdsoftheworld #birds | #kent #england
