Time for some morning exercises - female Shoveler doing some stretches at WWT Slimbridge Wetland Centre. (24.09.26) #glosbirds #ukwildlife #birds
Today’s theme by Helen for #BirdOfTheDay is #BestBeaks. So here is what I consider one of the most striking and colourful beaks in the bird world that I’ve captured, the Toucan #birds #thegardenjungle #wildlifephotography #birdwatching #shropshire #UKwildlife #birdphotography #canon #photography
@helenbennett.bsky.social has chosen #BestBeaks as #BirdOfTheDay theme; a bird with a beak/bill with striking colours, bold profiles or an interesting shape.

The first year male SIBERIAN BLUE ROBIN that graced our Shetland garden this morning. A fifth for Britain and one hell of a garden tick! Thanks to all that visited and enjoyed this special bird today. #BirdingScotland #UKbirding #RareBirdsUK #Birds #UKWildlife

Well, this was a nice surprise - a Hummingbird Hawk-moth spotted in the garden at 6:20pm on 1 October. (Bristol, UK) #teammoth #ukwildlife
Barn Owl hunting the Dee Marsh at Parkgate , Cheshire - fantastic bird ! @rspb.bsky.social @rspbburtonmere.bsky.social @rspbcymru.bsky.social @barnowltrust.bsky.social #birds #birdersUK #birdphotography #owls #ukwildlife
A couple of nice Flycatchers from this week. Red-breasted Fly at the Naze on Tuesday and Pied Fly on Mersea Island this afternoon! #Birding #EssexBirding #UKBirding #UKWildlife
The alt theme for #BirdOfTheDay today is #vivid, any bird with bright colours, so here are more Kingfisher pics! I took these at Brandon Marsh on Saturday, when I had many sightings but none of the Kingfishers came particularly close. #Birds #UKWildlife #EastCoastKin #NaturePhotography 🌿
Reflective Great White Egret, with a Little Egret looking on. RSPB Ham Wall, Somerset. (21.09.26) #somersetbirding #ukwildlife #birds
I really missed these smart little guys during my visits to Bempton Cliffs last week, and with their parents gone too the cliffs were much quieter. I don’t take black and white photos, so have converted a colour pic for today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme, #black&white. #Birds #UKWildlife #ECK 🌿
Lots of these magnificent beasts in the garden at the moment #ukwildlife
Over the moon (to put it mildly) to find this first year male SIBERIAN BLUE ROBIN in our garden at Hillwell, Shetland this morning. The fifth record for Britain and a first for Shetland. #BirdingScotland #UKbirding #RareBirdsUK #Birds #UKWildlife
Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme, set by @atlanticbirding.bsky.social, is:
#Black&White; any shot in black and white.

So, here are a couple of pictures of Avocet in flight along the River Avon, January 2026. #bristolbirding #ukwildlife #birds @atlanticbirding.bsky.social
Kingfisher are just so photogenic! I watched this one at WWT Slimbridge Wetland Centre, Gloucestershire (UK). It caught three small fish and returned to the same perch each time, before deciding that it had had its fill for a while. (24.09.26) #glosbirds #ukwildlife #birds @wwtsightings.bsky.social
