This one was photographed in Amsterdam, this is a Starlings Winter colours, they appear to be clack in the Summer but on close inspection they are all kinds of deep beautiful colours, purple through green

It's amazing, I was in Amsterdam in May 2023, but I didn't notice them, they are really cool :)

I do lots of bird photography but this one was very easy, it landed right beside me

It reminds me of my taking pictures in Tenerife: https://pixelfed.social/i/web/post/497709179228159658
with a wide angle lens 😄

Next shots from the Anaga forest in the northwesternmost part of Tenerife. I rarely take pictures of birds, I don't have the right lens for such pictures. So when I saw these birds really close to me, I decided to try to take some pictures and there are my results. It's worth noting that I took these photos with a wide-angle lens with a focal length of 16 mm! 📷 I couldn't decide which one shot to choose, so I've just chosen 2 in 2 different crops. Enjoy! These birds are called Tenerife Goldcrests or Tenerife Kinglets. 🐦 Gear: • Sony α6400 • Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN | C #animal #animals #bark #bird #birdphotography #birds #birdsofpixelfed #birdwatching #canaryislands #closeup #discovertenerife #forest #island #leaves #nature #naturephotography #outdoors #photography #scenery #sonya6400 #sonyalpha #spain #tenerife #tree #trees #tropical #wild #wildbirds #wildlife #wildlifephotography
