📍 Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany

Bee-eaters (Merops apiaster) are stunning, colorfu Bee-eaters (Merops apiaster) are stunning, colorful #birds that have been expanding their presence in Germany, particularly in Rheinland-Pfalz. 

These birds lead a short but eventful life in #germany🇩🇪 . They arrive in the second half of May and leave by August, just enough time to raise their young before migrating to Africa for the winter. The #beeeater population in Rheinland-Pfalz has been increasing significantly since the early 2000s. From just a few breeding pairs in 2002, the number grew to over 300 pairs.

Bee-eaters prefer steep loess or sand walls for nesting. They dig tunnels up to two meters long, ending in a brood chamber where they raise their chicks. Bee-eaters do not reuse old nesting sites, which means they rely on fresh sand pits and cliffs each year. Conservation efforts focus on preserving these habitats to support their growing population.

Males impress females by offering them prey as a bridal gift. This courtship behavior can continue until the last egg is laid. Capturing the bee-eater’s bridal gift exchange is a thrilling test of patience and precision, as the fleeting moment of the handover happens in the blink of an eye. A perfectly timed shot freezes their delicate courtship - an image rich with color, emotion, and the timeless rhythm of #nature. 📷✨
Ospreys (Fischadler) are pretty amazing when it co Ospreys (Fischadler) are pretty amazing when it comes to fishing. They can dive into the water and come up with huge fish, sometimes even getting pulled underwater by their catch! These #birds weigh around 3 to 4 pounds and can carry fish that are equal to their own weight. They usually go for fish that are about 12 to 18 inches long, but in some rare cases, #ospreys can catch fish weighing up to 5 pounds or more. The size of the fish they catch depends on things like the osprey's size, age, and how experienced they are at hunting, as well as the types of fish available in their habitat.
The Loggerhead Shrike (Raubwürger, #laniusludovic The Loggerhead Shrike (Raubwürger, #laniusludovicianus) may look unassuming, but its hunting skills are nothing short of extraordinary. It is a small but fierce predator with some truly fascinating traits. Despite being a songbird, it hunts like a #bird of prey, ambushing insects, birds, lizards, and small mammals from high perches. Lacking strong talons, it skewers its prey on thorns, barbed wire, or tight crevices to store food and make consumption easier. It has specialized "tomial teeth" on its hooked bill, which it uses to paralyze prey by delivering a precise jab to the spinal cord. The #loggerheadshrike impales poisonous prey like monarch butterflies and waits for toxins to break down before eating them. On cold mornings, it hunts immobilized insects that are sluggish due to low temperatures. This small bird can kill and carry prey as large as itself, transporting bigger victims in its feet and smaller ones in its beak. Young Loggerhead Shrikes practice exaggerated hunting behaviours, pecking at objects and attempting to impale inanimate items as they learn. The oldest recorded Loggerhead Shrike lived for nearly 12 years.
The greenfinch (Grünfink) is a charming little #s The greenfinch (Grünfink) is a charming little #songbird with vibrant green and yellow plumage that brightens up gardens across Europe. They love seeds, particularly from plants like sunflowers and they are frequent visitors to the feeders not only in our garden. #greenfinches are highly social and often gather in flocks during the non-breeding season.

The Meadow Pipit is a migratory bird and spends th The Meadow Pipit is a migratory bird and spends the winter months in southern regions. It is about 15 cm tall, has an olive-colored upper body, and reddish legs. 

In Germany, the meadow pipit is classified as highly endangered and is listed on the Red List of breeding birds.

The Southern yellow-billed hornbill (Tockus leucom The Southern yellow-billed hornbill (Tockus leucomelas, Gelbschnabeltoko) is a unique bird found in southern Africa. 

It is often called the "flying banana" due to its large, curved yellow beak. This omnivorous species feeds on a variety of prey, including insects and small vertebrates, and exhibits remarkable breeding habits where the female seals herself in a tree cavity while being fed by the male. They are monogamous and are commonly found in dry savannas and woodlands across several African countries, characterized by their loud clucking calls performed in groups.

Quite an interesting bird, right?

Bluethroats (Blaukehlchen) are small, colorful mig Bluethroats (Blaukehlchen) are small, colorful migratory birds belonging to the thrush family, found across Europe, Asia, and North Africa. 

Males are distinguished by their vibrant blue throat patch, which plays a role in attracting mates and establishing territory. They prefer habitats with dense vegetation near water and primarily feed on insects and small invertebrates. 

Known for their complex songs, males sing to attract females and defend their territory during the breeding season.

Bee-eaters (Bienenfresser) are known for their vib Bee-eaters (Bienenfresser) are known for their vibrant colors and graceful flight. They are often seen catching insects mid-air, showcasing their agility and precision. Their diet includes insects such as bees, dragonflies, beetles, butterflies and moths. 

Did you know that Bee-eaters take care to close their eyes when catching bees to prevent any poison from the bee's broken poison sac from getting into their eyes?
The red-shouldered hawk is a captivating bird of p The red-shouldered hawk is a captivating bird of prey found primarily in North America. 

Appearance: The red-shouldered hawk is known for its striking reddish-brown shoulder patches, which give it its name. It also has a barred tail and wings, with a pale underside and a dark, streaked back.

Habitat: These hawks thrive in wooded areas, especially near water sources like rivers and swamps. They are commonly found in deciduous forests and mixed woodlands.

Diet: As carnivores, red-shouldered hawks primarily feed on small mammals, amphibians, reptiles, and birds. They are skilled hunters and often perch high in trees to spot their prey.

Behaviour: These hawks are famous for their loud, distinctive calls, often described as a series of high-pitched "kee-aah" sounds. They are also known for their soaring flight and acrobatic displays during courtship.

Breeding: Red-shouldered hawks typically build their nests high in trees, using sticks and other plant materials. They lay 2-4 eggs, which are incubated by both parents. The chicks fledge after about 5-6 weeks.

Osprey (Fischadler) The osprey is a large raptor Osprey (Fischadler) 

The osprey is a large raptor, also known as a sea hawk or fish eagle. It has a distinctive appearance with a white head, dark eye stripe, and brown upper parts. Osprey are found near water bodies such as rivers, lakes, and coastal regions where they hunt for fish. They have reversible outer toes that allow them to grasp fish with two toes in front and two behind, providing a strong grip. Ospreys build large nests made of sticks, often on tall structures like trees, cliffs, or man-made platforms. They are known for their impressive diving skills, plunging into the water to catch fish with their sharp talons. 

I was quite impressed to watch hundreds of ospreys plunging into the water to catch fish during two afternoons on my last vacation in Florida this year in January.

Atlantic Puffin On a remote island in the North Atlantic Puffin 

On a remote island in the North Atlantic, the sun began to rise, casting a golden glow over the rugged cliffs and the sparkling sea. Among the rocky crevices, a colony of Atlantic Puffins bustled with activity. These charming seabirds, with their colorful beaks and striking black-and-white plumage, were preparing for a busy day of feeding their chicks. 

Atlantic Puffins face several challenges while feeding their chicks. 

They often have to travel long distances across the ocean to find food. This can be exhausting and time-consuming, especially when they need to make multiple trips to feed their chicks. 

Puffins' nests are usually hidden within rocky crevices, making it difficult for them to navigate the terrain while carrying food. 

Puffins must be vigilant against predators that may threaten their chicks or steal their food. 

Harsh weather conditions, such as strong winds and rough seas, can make it challenging for Puffins to find and catch fish.

Puffins have always been pretty high on my bird photography wish list.
