Jesus Christ, there's a very rare trumpeter swan living in the East River of NYC. Who can even survive in that? https://hellgatenyc.com/behold-nycs-first-ever-trumpeter-swan-extinction/?utm_source=fark&utm_medium=website&utm_content=link&utm_campaign=fark&ICID=ref_fark #wildlife #bird #swan #cool #NYC

Glide Over Water I saw this ring‑billed gull (Larus delawarensis) a while back, flying down the beach at Gulfport, Mississippi, keeping a steady line parallel to the shore. Step into a world where even the smallest moments—like the glint in a bird's eye—tell their own story. https://swede1952-photographs.pixels.com #photo #photography #photographer #photographylovers #wildlife #nature #bird #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdphotography #whorebird #gull #ringbilledgull

Good morning. 🕊️🕊️🕊️ 6 March 2026 I’m moving slow this morning—too slow. The first thing I did after getting out of bed was take a nap, at least for as long as Charlie would allow. That window of unhindered rest turned out to be thirty minutes of the hour I had set aside for exactly that purpose. I made the mistake of leaving the back door open so Charlie could see outside, which meant he could also spot squirrels in the yard. For reasons known only to him, a squirrel sighting is reason enough to start pestering me. I’ve been retired a few years now, but back when I had to get up and go to work, there were plenty of mornings—after getting cleaned up and dressed—when I fantasized about sitting down in my recliner and going right back to sleep. But I had to soldier on and get to work. On days off, I would sometimes set my alarm for the usual time just so I could turn it off and go back to sleep. I considered that one of life’s small pleasures. I think I’ve developed a touch of age‑related laziness—pigritia senilis. It sounds like something I made up, which I did, but if you look it up you’ll find a surprising amount of information. My joking around may have turned into a small science project about the physiologic changes of aging. Interestingly, I first read that as “psychotic changes,” which might not be entirely inaccurate. The forces at work include aging‑related fatigue, reduced executive function, psychomotor slowing, anergia, motivational decline, frailty syndrome, cognitive slowing, and apathy. It helps to stay active, though. I lift weights once or twice a week to keep my strength up, but I have to admit that motivational decline is noticeable. “I don’t feel old. I don’t feel anything until noon. Then it’s time for my nap.” - Bob Hope “Inside every old person is a young person wondering what happened.” -Terry Pratchett #photo #photography #photographer #wildlife #nature #bird #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdphotography #pigeons #doves

Pale Flier This soft‑focused image of an American goldfinch in midair is actually a photo bomb. I was focused on a different bird when this one slipped into the corner of the frame. The result feels like a pastel made of light and motion, a small burst of color drifting through the shot at just the right moment. Step into a world where even the smallest moments—like the glint in a bird's eye—tell their own story. https://swede1952-photographs.pixels.com #photo #photography #photographer #photographylovers #wildlife #nature #bird #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdphotography #finch #americangoldfinch

Sparrow in the City I don’t have to go all the way to Savannah, Georgia to find house sparrows (Passer domesticus); there are dozens around my home. But Savannah happens to be where I took this picture of a little female. The image came out crisp, and the rusted metal post she’s perched on gives the whole scene a striking contrast that really makes her pop. This was along the river walk, where someone had tossed a handful of corn kernels into a landscaped island tucked between the walkways. If you enjoy photos of birds and other wildlife, take a look at my photo gallery. Sparrows are never overlooked—they're a valued and important part of my collection. Feel free to explore! https://swede1952-photographs.pixels.com #photo #photography #photographer #photographylovers #wildlife #nature #bird #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdphotography #sparrow #HouseSparrow

Tide Dancers Here’s a photograph of a gathering of Black Skimmers (Rynchops niger) at Gulfport, Mississippi. Every time we visited, I ended up taking hundreds of pictures of these fascinating birds, so I like to post one every now and then.

Edge of the Perch Here is a sharp image of a Blue Jay (Cyanocitta cristata). I’m not entirely sure what it was preparing to do, though it likely dropped to the ground a moment later. If you're enchanted by images of blue jays and other captivating corvids, dive into my photo gallery for a visual treat!

Chickadee in Pink I was digging through my unpublished archives this morning and found this image of a Carolina chickadee holding a sunflower seed. What caught my eye was the soft flash of color from the crepe myrtle blossoms in the background. Step into a world where even the smallest moments—like the glint in a bird's eye—tell their own story. https://swede1952-photographs.pixels.com #photo #photography #photographer #photographylovers #wildlife #nature #bird #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdphotography #CarolinaChickadee

Eye-to-Eye with a Tufted Titmouse This tufted titmouse (Baeolophus bicolor) seems to stare directly at the camera. Tufted titmice are a favorite among a select group of bird enthusiasts. To celebrate these charming creatures, I’ve curated a special collection dedicated entirely to them in my photo gallery. Take a look! https://swede1952-photographs.pixels.com #photo #photography #photographer #photographylovers #wildlife #nature #bird #birds #birding #birdwatching #birdphotography #tuftedtitmouse
