📦《寵物鳥包》

你知道市面上的寵物鳥是怎麼來的嗎？
那些羽毛鮮豔、能模仿人聲的鳥兒，
多半從遙遠的地方被抓來，只因我們的喜好與慾望。

甚至在台灣，也有原生種被捕捉販售，
牠們原本屬於森林、屬於天空，
卻被迫困在籠子裡，只為了滿足我們短暫的觀賞。

這個貼紙包裡，會隨機放入 5–6 張不同的鳥類貼紙。
每一張資訊卡，都附上一句「共鳴語」——
那是牠想對你說的話，一句真實卻脆弱的心聲。

我希望，這不只是貼紙。
而是一面鏡子，讓我們看清自己曾經忽略的事實：
鳥，不只是我們的娛樂或陪伴，
牠們也是獨立的生命，有權飛翔，有權自由。
2/4
願這些貼紙，成為一個小小的提醒，
提醒我們在喜愛牠們的同時，
也要學會尊重與守護。

Wings Over Water — Zoutelande’s Coastal Birdlife

What do you see when you’re at the sea? Some see waves and endless sky. I see movement, feathers, and stories. At Zoutelande, seabirds are more than background scenery — they are coastal sentinels, perfectly adapted to a life between land and sea.

I photographed a mix of species: adult gulls perched on wave breakers, keeping a watchful eye on the tide, and a juvenile Larus cachinnans (Pontische Meeuw or Caspian Gull) resting quietly on a boardwalk, still growing into its adult plumage. These gulls are skilled opportunists — coastal recyclers playing a vital role in the ecosystem.

Among them, a special guest: Haematopus longirostris, the Australian Pied Oystercatcher. A striking species with a powerful bill and strong personality, often mistaken for a local — but likely a rare visitor or misidentification (since they don't normally appear in Europe). Either way, a reminder of the magic of migration and the surprises nature offers.

Shot with my Canon 5D Mark III and the Sigma 100–400mm lens, these images capture the texture of the coast: salt on the wind, waves on the shore, and wings in the sky.

Where there are birds, there is life — and always something worth protecting.
