Autumn and Winter in Germany

[alice44]

Wow

Manu it is exciting to see a completely unexpected bird --
and you got pictures too!

[Felis silvestris]

Actually I don't know. I also don't know where the young ones go, this was my first season with them. But I keep my fingers crossed, that you will see them tomorrow again! Maybe so close that you can get a few better photos?

[meierlein]

Wow, Manu, what luck! Maybe they are already on their way home? Who knows, Nori, Elo or Uno?

But the goldfinch is also beautiful! Have not seen one here.

:peek:

I learned,
that NORI, ELO and UNO will come "home" maybe in three years to raise their own families ^^

[Felis silvestris]

Who knows where on their first years they will fly around? Not all young birds do what people expect them to do!

WOW Manu, lucky you, an Osprey And the Goldfinch is beautiful too of course

Thank you for your pictures and video

[Starling]

Wow, Manu. I was just about to ask what was that beautiful bird. But Lussi05 said it already: European Goldfinch. Stunning.

And an osprey! I can´t believe they could be coming back, at least not to the Northern Europe yet. It´s still a long winter ahead here...

The last few day's I was in contact with different persons ( Urmas/NABU/Vogelwarte Sempach/CH and others). A few persons don't answering till yet. It seems it was really a bright/light coloured buzzard .
It's a bit embarrassing I meant it was an osprey, but otherwise it's good it wasn't. Because the low temperatures in this area.
Now I'm looking forward and hope I will see this birds (We saw that were 2 birds same colour/size) once again in this area.

Today I was testing my new cam. Unfortunately it was not really nice weather (cold and cloudy) but I find some nice object to take the first steps to learn how to operate with this cam.

A lovely visitor on my feeder

Manu

Great results for your first tries!

[Manu]

Near the village where I live there live a group of field- roe/deer. The stay mostly every day on the same place and they are totally relaxed.










BTW: I've buy now a Canon EOS 60D and a Zoom (Canon EF 100-400)

[Felis silvestris]

Nice output for the first day! The roes are really "cool", just looking!

Has anyone seen Fireblade recently ? It seems a long time since I've seen a post from him.
I hope he is O.K.

Has anyone seen Fireblade recently ?

Hi all! Hello macdoum! Thank you. I am every day with you. The housemanagment cutted all the trees und bushes in front of my window. = no pictures. But I touched the nest tree of my eagle pair in december. They are in that area and I hope for a breeding. And I am waiting for the eagles in the Linda/Sulev nest. Breeding will start in march I hope.

[Lussi05]

Fireblade, how sad with the trees, but I hope yor eagle pair decides to breed

Manu, your pictures are great, congratulations on your new camera

Yes, it´s my birdfeeder

A colleague of my husband de-installed his observation camera and DH could get it

It has a wide angle lense and so it is not so good for snapshots, but I can watch live a lot of the feeding places the birdies prefer .... the appletree and the evergreen Thuja and the ground

And Dear Husband and Dear Son had a lot of fun installing it

[Felis silvestris]

And when will you stream it here?
