    A female common blackbird (Turdus merula) [OC] [3126x4686]

    I observed this female blackbird searching for food on the ground under the leaves. I carefully tried to sneak up on her. Just when I got close enough, she looked up and I was able to take this photo.

    I like the early morning light and how the feathers sparkle. That's why I want to share the photo with you here.

    Shot with a Canon EOS R5 MarkII and a RF200-800mm F6.3-9 IS USM lens in the Örmis nature reserve near Illnau, Switzerland.

    Close-up of a European robin (Erithacus rubecula) [OC] [3327x4988]

    Even though the robin is quite common, I am always happy when I manage to take a photo. Isn't it fascinating how you can see the individual feathers when you zoom in?

    Shot with a Canon EOS R5 MarkII and a RF200-800mm F6.3-9 IS USM lens in the Wildert nature reserve near Illnau, Switzerland.

    Always a joy: the very shy Eurasian jay (Garrulus glandarius) [OC] [2022x3032]

    I see these beautiful birds every now and then in the nearby Örmis nature reserve. However, most of the time I just see them flying away. That's why I'm especially happy when I manage to take a photo and therefore I'd like to share it with you.
