Yesterday on my trip to the Inn River in Upper Austria I also took several pictures of small birds like this nuthatch and some other smaller birds that live there in the trees and on the water. But of Course the birds of prey like the pictures of the "white tailed Eagle" that I was able to photography yesterday are a bit more interesting for me. Yesterday was a very good day for birds of prey because a lot of them were flying in the sky. I was able to take pictures of the western marsh harrier, the white tailed Eagle, falcons and buteos. So probably the situation for thermal flying birds was perfect yesterday.

I also managed to take several pictures of the Robin, a wagtail, several ducks and geese. I am pretty happy with my results from yesterday, that was a pretty successful day for bird photography. Now in spring more and more birds are returning from their winter habitat and the most interesting time in bird photography will be in the next few weeks. I hope I can visit several places here in Upper Austria at least, but due to the COVID Restrictions this might get more and more difficult.

Here is a short video of the nuthatch, unfortunately I didn't take a tripod and the video is a bit shaky:
Birds all of prey are very interesting, aren't they? But these little guys are pretty Incredible, too! You did get some great photos.
You have funny nuthatches, ginger colour. And here in Russia they are completely white. Excellent pictures!
