Decided to restore my hobby of capturing variety of wild living birds. This season starts with a Common Tree treecreeper, tasting some bugs. Captured in Garazhdzha forest, ecological hiking walk.

The common blackbird is a species of true thrush. It is also called Eurasian blackbird, or simply blackbird where this does not lead to confusion with a similar-looking local species. Wikipedia

In memories of summer 2014. The common linnet is a small passerine bird of the finch family, Fringillidae. It derives its scientific name from its fondness for hemp and its English name from its liking for seeds of flax, from which linen is made. Wikipedia

Spotted those pair. They were unimaginably adorable. There were going to rain so they stuck together to warm up. Parents were bosy feeding them with grasshoppers so I have had a second to catch them on camera. Full Flickr version: Canon 6D, Canon EF 100-400L ƒ4.5-5.6 IS USM, at 400mm, ISO3200, 1/800, ƒ/5.6

I simply love those dynamic birds. They are really quick. Catching all the insects it can to feed its chicks. Flickr version: Canon 650D, Canon EF-S 55-250 f4.0-5.6, at 250mm, ISO500, 1/320, ƒ/6.3

This bird inhabits a tree near my house. Catching various insects that live in the trees or grass nearby. Flickr (Full version) Canon 6D, Sigma APO DG EF 70-300mm f4.0-5.6, at 300mm, ISO100, 1/500, ƒ/5.6
