Feathered Friends - Show Me A Photo Contest Round 100

avatar

Hello Feathered Friends Lovers,

Welcome to #SMaP Show Me A Photo Contest Round 100!

I am happy to be back after two weeks break and to start the contest again. For this round I would like to see what bird or birds you met first in 2023. Did you encounter something unusual or simply the same birds you see everyday? My first bird is the humble sparrow. I wasn't sure if I will find anything, but after I made few shots I saw the hawk. But for the contest, I will show the pictures of the sparrows, because they were my first birds to photograph in 2023.

ROUND 100

Rules

Show me your photo of a bird, following these rules:

  • The photo must be your own.
  • Post in the community Feathered Friends
  • You may add more photos, but you should state which one is your entry, otherwise the first will be taken into account.
  • Tell us something about your photo/s.
  • Your photo must follow the weekly theme.

Haha, I was wondering myself what I would see first on 1st of Jan. And that's how I came up to the theme. 🙂

Did you encounter something unusual or simply the same birds you see everyday?

Nowadays I live with one. A female Harris's hawk. Can I post a photo with her as an entry to the 100th round of this contest?

By the way, congratulations for the 100th round of this contest. This is a very good milestone.

Happy New Year.

Have a nice day and have a nice weekend.
All the best. Greetings and much love from Hungary.
