The swans and storks have long since flown south for the winter. In early October I was out and about with long lens looking for wildlife; a local farmer told me that
'ptactwa już nie ma' ('the birds have all flown'). But then pheasants are perennial around here.
This chap (
above) was foraging in the field next to our house; I caught him with long lens from my bedroom window this morning. A reminder to feed the birds at this time of year.
Below: A flock of crows that had been hanging around the apple trees in the adjacent field take off and fly to the poplars across the road.

Remarkable pheasant photo - it struck me more like a fine painting - like something by Charles Tunnicliffe or similar- especially with the way the proud bird's disposition and mien has been captured so astutely, along with the fine-flecked colours. An excellent photographic study.
