A cormorant standing on rocks at the edge of a pond. June 2025

Photo of a cormorant, standing on a rock at the edge of a small pond in our neighborhood used for irrigation, looking to the left of the image. The bird is dark all over, darker on the belly.

Saw this massive bird today. Pretty sure it's a peregrine falcon. It started flying as soon as I got my phone out, I'm glad I could snap these! Sucker was probably around 18 inches tall standing up. #birdsofmastodon

This European #BlueTit - Cyanistes caeruleus, Blaumeise - punk came visit our place in #Bochum, Germany, today. Shot with a #Lumix FZ300 at maximum zoom; light was difficult but some contrast and color adjustment with #IrfanView got this out of the JPG. #BirdsOfMastodon
