A community for people who like birds, birdwatching and birding in general!

Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

Nikon D850, Nikon 200-500mm f/5.6

f/7.1, ISO 800, 1/500s, 500mm

Another of my favourite birds, a male Stonechat. They get their name from their call, which sounds like two pebbles being knocked together.

They make good photography subjects as they are often found perching on the top of low bushes as is the case here.
