I've seen them once before, but this one gave me plenty of time to take photos up close. I'm loving their colors.

It was definitely worth it to wake up before dawn this morning!

A few more photos from last Saturday in the birding hut. I love how these turned out very sharp and detailed.

Close-up of a Great spotted woodpecker taken at the birding hut yesterday.
I decided to try a little bit of a different artistic type of edit with this one and I think it turned out pretty awesome!

Progress of ~1.5 years of #Kingfisher photo's.

First on 30 November 2024, 2 months on the new hobby. Next one was in #Bloeidaal 1 year ago, a week later my best so far at #Waterwingebied

But yesterday beat all of those with a great sharp and detailed shot! Extra details in the alt-text
