Feathered Friends - Show Me A Photo Contest Round 132

in Feathered Friendslast year

Hello Feathered Friends Lovers,

Welcome to #SMaP Show Me A Photo Contest Round 132!

I was browsing my photos and thinking of the next challenge. I got this idea - it will be Free Theme, but I want you to tell me where you took your picture - in your garden, in the park or zoo, in the lake or river, in the field or in the woods. When did you take the photo, in which season for example. If you don't know what the bird is, you can ask the communty for help. Is there anything curious about the photo? What makes it special? These are just few questions to give you a hint how to tell a story and make the post more interesting and with better option to win. Moreover, the quality posts are nominated for the Bird/Author of the Week. This means I expect your entries to be with more than one photo and story about each one.


ROUND 132

SHOW ME A PICTURE OF BIRD/S

FREE THEME


Here is my example

European Jay

Yesterday was a very successful day. We went in the field not far from home. This field was abandoned for a long time and now more and more construction works take place there. There is still an area with some trees and shrubs where we found plenty of birds. Suprisingly, the jay was there too. This is not a bird to be seen very often and I don't know why. I was just making a picture of two woodpeckers and then hubby pointed out that there was another bird on the same tree and that was the jay. I got only one shot before the jay was off.

Now is your turn and let me see your photos of birds, but first read carefully the rules below⬇️

Rules

Show me your photo of a bird, following these rules:

  • The photo must be your own.
  • Post in the community Feathered Friends
  • You may add more photos, but you should state which one is your entry, otherwise the first will be taken into account.
  • Tell us something about your photo/s.
  • Your photo must follow the weekly theme.
  • Please put the link of your entry in the comment section of the contest post here.
  • Put in the title of your post that this is an entry for the contest. (Optional)
  • Use #smap as a tag.

Last, but not least - have fun!

If you create quality post with more images and interesting story about them, making extra effort can give you bigger upvotes and attract curators. Keep that in mind.

The European Jay has some similar characteristics to the Blue Jays we see here.

I guess they do, like distant cousins. I don't know why I see the jay seldom, this was a lucky shot.

Hello dear friend @nelinoeva good afternoon
I think that this week I will be able to participate. I have some bird shots that we did recently.
I take this opportunity to wish you a splendid afternoon

Hi, @jlufer 🙂
It's been a while, I missed your entries and I am looking forward to seeing your photos.

two days ago, a jay flew to my tree outside the window.
By the way, today I read in the regional news that people noticed a strange bird that had never lived in our region before. The climate on Earth is clearly changing.

Yeah, the climate change is real. Who knows what else we will encounter.
Do you know what kind of bird that was?

like your European jay Haven't seen that here. nice photo. 💖😊

Aww, thank you, glad you like it. 🙂
