++ TURDUS MERULA ++
This #Blackbird posed too beautifully not to photograph.

As you can see in the back.... a blue sky.. so this was definitely not taken here in our wet Netherlands โ˜‚
I was fortunate and enjoyed a few days of sun on the Spanish Coast near Alicante

+ RECURVIROSTRA AVOSETTA + Stunning to see that somebody out there is creating creatures, that are perfectly adapted to the food they eat and search for... how about a beak like this for example.

The beauty of Spring. For the next 2 months the results of hardworking parents, building nests and flying back and forth with food, will become visible to the audience.

I love #Owls, they're all so gifted.
Here's a #BarnOwl flying up to catch a mouse. Quite a large bird, but it flies without a sound... The branch didn't make a noise when it took off and you don't hear the wings flapping... just nothing.
It really flies like a ghost.

++ AQUILA CHRYSAETO ++

A couple of young #goldeneagles It looks like the older one is protecting the youngest, but as soon as mama forgets to bring a new rat or mouse... The little one becomes prey. It's a harsh world out there.

Happy that not all trees are fully in leaves already. This way you can at least spot the little ones as well.

What a little bit of sunshine can do... Here's a Eurasian Penduline Tit enjoying the first blossom.
A rare species which is on our red list.
The picture was taken in Lelystad, the Netherlands

@BirdsinLatin You have the chain of events wrong: there is no one creating creatures for a special niche in nature. It's nature itself that diversifies species.

@BirdsinLatin wonderful bird and picture though!

(Stunning to see there's somebody out there creating men that are perfectly adapted to make this kind of pictures ๐Ÿ˜‰ )

@ArendAdam evolution theory is of course the only theory, but didnโ€™t want to offend nobody๐Ÿ˜œ... Thanks for the nice (funny) comment
@BirdsinLatin And I hoped not to offend you. Glad I didn't. And glad you post pictures like these!
@BirdsinLatin @ArendAdam with logic like that, where does โ€œgerm theoryโ€ land?
It being called a theory doesnโ€™t make it fair game with religious stuff.
