hey @localnaturespotter I have moved your poll here as it fits within the existing discussion.

I vote for kingfishers. I mean,who doesn’t love those little guys with their bright colors, brilliant fishing and nests made out of the bones of their prey?

GOOD NEWS! I finally have a camera (an ancient cannon eos 1200d) and I finally figured how to use it! Got a few good photos that I will add here once I figure out how to do so. (I still have no idea how to do most things, like setting an aperture or shutter speed). EVEN BETTER NEWS! I’m heading off…

I got the Long-eared Owl on my walk yesterday! [large (11)]

Man, I wish I was a birdwatcher 10 years ago. Back then I regularly saw owls outside, but just didn’t care. Now I’m desperate to see one of them, but I never do :( To be fair though, back then my main goal in life was to get a toy indoraptor, so I can’t really blame 5yr old me for ignoring everythi…

Long-eared Owls are fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks! Wish you a good day (or a good night, if you live in my time zone) filled with birds!

Thank you, you too! P.S. It is 11:20 AM for me :slightly_smiling_face:
