Birdies,
are the most photogenic,
models.
They need no makeup for their closeups.
No photo-shop,
nor artifice.
They are natural born beauties.
Cheers to you from the beauteous birdies~

I am so happy you enjoyed them Anita & thank you very much! დ
Amazing photography again, gal. Thanks for the mallard ones, I love them.
I love that you love the beautiful mallard! I do too დ
I like their distinctive quacking as well, Cindy. I miss my visits to the park and river to feed and enjoy a moment peace with them, and of course I used to chat away to them. Hehe! ♥
The great thing about ducks, and most all animals, especially the wild ones, is, if you are a human who bothers to be still, not move, not talk, they will definitely try and chat you up. These animal chats are the best conversations I have ever had. I am super glad you and the ducks chatted. Ducks are discerning. They don’t just chat with anyone. Love to you დდ
Thanks, Cindy. ON day I’ll get to see them again. I’ve been thinking of a disabled motor scooter. But with having to used the charger on the ground floor, I would get up to the 23th floor flat, and undoubtedly worry , something like; Did I turn on the charger? Did I lock the door? Snf rnf up do uncertain, I’d end up hobbling down to check.
After settling down, I ofter thing did ?I lave the cooker on? Tap Running? Heater on? Lock the flat door? Shower left on? And end up just having to go and check. Might be a good thing, I get more exercise nocturnally than in the day.
Haha! Taketh care, my dearest. ♥
Awesome photos!
Merci beaucoup mon Ami დ
You’re welcome. 🙂
დდ
Stunning shots of the Egrets!
Happy you like them & thank you! დ
Such characters and all look like they have ways to keep cool. Sweltering heat here in Cabañas De Tavira by the sea. Love those elegant but also comical expressions with the egrets.
So sorry about your heat. It is lasting soooo long. At least you are by the sea in beautiful Portugal. Stay safe and cool. I am worried about the fires in Spain დ
Thanks, I have a firewatch app now for our region. Everyone seems to clean up the land but I think some of this like the bracken helps create dome humidity.
I hope so დდ
Good ones. Here’s lookin’ at you kid!
I love when wild critters look into my soul დ
They won’t tell.
Thankfully.
Oh my goodness – 100% amazing!!
Thanks so much, Cindy. Have a great week!
Visa versa 2UX2 Sheila & thank you! დ

I’ve got one image of a birdie (gull) at the shore one year. Possibly before digital…
Anyway because of the light exposure the image looks like a painting!!
Lovely birdies indeed.
I love that type of magical image დ
I’d like to get back into photography… but I have to figure out the new programming!!
Or not! 🙂
Just start taking photos. That’s what I did. Stay safe & well Jules დ
Once I get my house back in order – and learn to use my photo programs 🙂
Enjoy your summer. Hard to believe my grands are starting up school again by the end of this month!!
Well, of course you are “spot on”, as my British friends would say. Beautiful birdies beckon, right!?
Smiling. Beautiful birdies beckon beautifully 😉 You are very right. Take good care Kim დ
Absolutely exquisite!!👌
