Good morning. 📷🧵🐦

19 March 2025

Tomorrow is the first day of spring. Spring will be here when tomorrow is today—hurray.

Lately, I’ve been daydreaming about a new camera—a Canon R5 mirrorless model paired with a Canon 200-800 mm lens. Truth be told, it’s really just the lens I want, but it’s not compatible with my existing cameras, and there are no adapters to make it work. It’s funny how hobbies create the perfect excuse to buy new things. I already own four cameras—not counting my phone or the little Sony camera gathering dust in the upper cabinet of my desk. Let’s be honest, a new camera is far from a necessity.

For my wife, it’s all about sewing and quilting machines. It’s as if certain businesses saw hobbies as untapped gold mines and thought, “I can make money from that.”

Strands of Steel, Wings of Wonder "This image beautifully captures an eastern bluebird perched gracefully on a powerline. The bird's vibrant blue feathers contrast its rusty orange chest and clean white underparts, creating a stunning display of natural colors. The powerline, with its textured strands of black and metallic hues, offers a modern, industrial counterpoint to the organic elegance of the bluebird. Against the soft, light sky in the background, the bird becomes the focal point, blending nature's beauty with human-made elements seamlessly." - Copilot

One of Western Australia's beautiful native birds - this is a Western Spinebill and they were very very busy when I was trying to photograph them this week. Only got a handful of shots of birds (but I have many frames of leaves and branches....)#birds #birdphotography

A Western Spinebill in a little patch of light amongst some dry branches. It has a downcurved beak a little like a hummingbird, and a lovely orange chest and nape with a black cap and red eye.

I previously posted about this little hummingbird that has made a nest in my backyard patio for the third year in a row. And since I don’t have my dad to share these with anymore, I decided to share with you all. I HAVE AN EXCITING UPDATE!! Rosie Pearl’s babies have hatched!! Meet the little twins—with eggshell still in their tiny feathers. 😍 Rosie is being a good mom and making sure to keep them feed. Both pictures are of her feeding them. ❤️

Tiny Titan of the Forest

This morning, I spotted a tufted titmouse (Baeolophus bicolor). I'm not sure how many of these delightful little birds are around during the mornings, but sometimes I see several. Since they are not sexually dimorphic, distinguishing between males and females is something I haven't been able to do.

Tufted titmice are a favorite among a select group of bird enthusiasts. To celebrate these charming creatures, I’ve curated a special collection dedicated entirely to them in my photo gallery. Take a look!

"In this image, the tufted titmouse perches gracefully on a slender branch, its compact body angled slightly forward, creating a poised and alert stance. The bird’s soft gray plumage, with a hint of warm brown on its sides, contrasts beautifully with its white underparts. The delicate crest on its head stands proudly, adding to its charm, while its small, black beak points downward, hinting at its readiness to forage. Its tail, long and evenly gray, is subtly fanned out, completing its streamlined silhouette. The bird’s dark eye, possibly black or a very deep amber, glimmers with an intensity that captures attention, giving it a lively and inquisitive expression. The background provides a serene natural setting, blurred with soft hues of green and brown, suggesting a forested environment. The muted tones of the backdrop emphasize the bird’s delicate features and vibrant personality. Subtle plays of light and shadow dance across the scene, creating a tranquil yet dynamic atmosphere that highlights the tufted titmouse as the centerpiece of this captivating moment in nature." - Copilot
