Two Cedar Waxwings sharing a crunchy and juicy grasshopper. Grasshoppers are best served cold, but some Cedar Waxwings like to warm them up in the microwave for 30-45 seconds, although I don't recommend that since it can smell up the kitchen something fierce. Of course, if you like the smell of cooked grasshopper, then by all means, warm that bitch up!

I've tried to sound more professional with posts like this, but clearly it's not what everyone else does and also doesn't seem to work. So.

If you don't know me, I'm Dooz. I'm queer, autistic, physically disabled, everything Tumblr loves in a bitch. Here's a picture I found on my old SD card to show that I am indeed a real person:

Because of most of those aforementioned things, regular work isn't an option for me. What I can do, sometimes, is photography. For many years I've mainly taken photos of birds and other wildlife, but more recently I've started taking interest in abstract photography as well. For these, I have a few shops. Unfortunately, despite my diligence in promoting my work, I've seen little payoff.

I've been struggling for over a year now with a laptop that barely works, and it's severely limiting what I can do with my photos. One day it will just stop working and I won't have anywhere near enough money to replace it. For the same amount of time I've been dealing with it, I've also been trying to save up for a new one via sales from my shops and by pawning off anything I can. The sad part is that most of my savings come from the latter. I still need about $800 more before even considering browsing for one.

So here I am making a Tumblr Certified™ Beg Post. Below are the ways you can help me out:

My Ko-fi (tips): If this post was put in front of a couple hundred people and every one of them gave a single dollar ($1), I would be so much closer to my goal.

My Ko-fi Shop: If you prefer to get something in return for what you give, I have some photos available for digital sale, ranging from $3 each to $50 for the full bundle of 180+ photos.

My INPRNT Shop: If you have more money to spare and want some art to decorate your home, office, etc. with, you can buy photo, canvas, metal, and acrylic prints, posters, stickers, and even a couple phone cases of my photos. This option does result in less of the money you spend going to me, but you also get the most out of it, so that's up to you.

And if you can't afford shit all (like me), reblogging this post and encouraging others to do the same is thankfully free. I don't have a lot of followers and don't see myself gaining a lot of real ones in the future, so if you're reading this, I need your help.

#a rare photo of me since I don't typically post them anymore #pretty sure tags don't work if you say Ko-fi or anything in it but I'll try anyway #photography #animal photography #wildlife photography #nature photography #lensblr #photographers on tumblr

April end of month post 1 of 4: Ten of my favourite bird photos I took this month and full summary of my month

For this month’s end of month post, as it has been one of the best and most prolific bird and wildlife watching and photography months I’ve ever had, I am doing four posts each with ten of my favourite pictures I took of different (in places) grouped subject types so that I keep the link to the month’s number and am sharing forty of my favourite photos from the month. I pre-wrote the month summary text so wanted to keep that all together, so this is below and refers to every aspect of my hobby this month and my next three posts shall have the other thirty pictures.

The bird pictures in this post are of; Slavonian Grebe on the Scotland trip, Lapwing at Lochindorb, Long-tailed Duck at Burghead Harbour in Moray, Hooded Crow on Mull, Tree Sparrow and Yellowhammer at RSPB Loch of Strathbeg in Aberdeenshire, Greylag Goose goslings and Woodpigeon at Lakeside Country Park, Hampshire, Little Owl at Portland in Dorset and Whimbrel at Pennington in Hampshire.

April 2023 has been one of the best months of my life. That is of course mostly down to the fact that we returned to Scotland going on the Heatherlea Spring Into Scotland birding tour of the Highlands, Mull, Moray and Aberdeenshire. It was one of the greatest experiences of my life as we saw a very long list of phenomenal and many iconic birds and mammals and other flora and fauna, took in some of the most breathtaking views I’d ever seen of the rugged and high mountainous landscape with vast forest, splendid lochs and charging rivers with the coast enjoyed a lot too. From our first ever wild Otters seen to summer plumage Slavonian Grebes there were so many precious and marvellous natural sights we had never seen before and dreams came true when we saw them. We just really felt in our element and made the most of being out in wilderness and wild wonderland. There was some amazing birdwatching for us in the rest of the month too with alongside our first ever White-billed Divers on the Moray coast two more new birds at home in Black-crowned Night Heron at Stockbridge Common Marsh and Cirl Bunting at Portland. There were many other great species seen this month with us really cruising into spring and I loved seeing birds in their breeding seasons again this month headlined by goslings and ducklings I saw at Lakeside Country Park and in Winchester.

My bird year list after April is in an incredible place, I am already into the 190s with thirty four year ticks thus far this month my highest amount of year ticks in an April ever which is so unprecedented and thrilling for me. Only four of my previous year lists finished on a higher amount than what I’m currently on and of course I’m miles ahead of where I was on this date in previous years. Other of my standout birds seen this month were Osprey, Golden Eagle, White-tailed Eagle, Merlin, Black-throated Diver, Red-throated Diver, Great Northern Diver, Dipper, Corn Bunting, Tree Sparrow, Swallow, Sand Martin, Sedge Warbler, Blackcap, Cetti’s Warbler, Whitethroat, Whimbrel, Peregrine Falcon, Mediterranean Gull and Little Owl.

Of course Mountain Hare, Bottlenose Dolphin, Red Deer and others alongside Otters on the Scotland trip made it perhaps my best ever month of seeing mammals, making my mammal year list this year my highest ever already. As expected for April it was very much a butterfly awakening with brilliant time spent seeing more of the first few species in a year especially on strong sunny days. Orange Tip, Speckled Wood and Brimstone were key species seen as these flamboyant insects gripped me a lot. It was a big month of flowers for me too, from marsh marigold to cuckooflower I enjoyed seeing a lot more species in bloom. Scenes of blossom turning to ripe green leaves was a major feature of my observing and photographing of the landscape this month. I also enjoyed beetles, spiders and fungi this month. I was pleased to take a huge amount of photos this month with many varied ones I’m pleased with. I hope you all have a nice May.

Top Birdwatching Tips for Thattekad Bird Sanctuary Visitors

Kerala, India is home to the magnificent Thattekad Bird Sanctuary, a paradise for bird lovers. Spanning 25 square kilometers of lush green landscapes, this sanctuary is home to over 300 bird species, attracting enthusiasts from around the globe. Whether you are an experienced birder or a nature enthusiast, exploring the avian wonders of Thattekad is an unparalleled experience. Bird activity varies throughout the day, so plan your visit strategically. Early mornings and late afternoons are prime times for bird watching as birds are most active during these periods.

Arriving at the sanctuary during these times increases your chances of spotting a wide array of species engaging in their natural behaviors, such as feeding, nesting, and socializing. Before setting off on your bird watching expedition, make sure you have the necessary equipment. A pair of binoculars and a field guide specific to Kerala's birds will enrich your bird watching experience by enabling you to observe details and identify species accurately. Also, remember to bring essentials like a hat, sunscreen, insect repellent, and plenty of water to ensure a comfortable exploration.

Birds are sensitive to noise, so maintain a quiet and discreet approach while bird watching. Avoid loud conversations and sudden movements that could startle or disrupt the birds. By being inconspicuous, you will have a better chance of witnessing birds behaving naturally in their environment, providing you with unforgettable wildlife encounters. Thattekad Bird Sanctuary features a range of habitats, including dense forests, riverbanks, and marshy areas, each home to different bird species. Explore these diverse environments to maximize your birdwatching opportunities. Stroll along forest trails, wander by the Periyar River, and delve into the sanctuary's wetlands to encounter a diverse array of avian residents.

Bird watching encompasses more than just using your eyes; it involves engaging all of your senses. Listen carefully for unique bird calls and melodies, as they can assist you in locating hidden or camouflaged species. Pay attention to the sound of rustling leaves or the flapping of wings, as these indicate nearby bird activity. By sharpening your senses, you will become more attuned to the subtle details of the natural world around you. As caretakers of the environment, it is essential to show respect for the wildlife and their habitats. Stick to designated trails to minimize disturbance to nesting areas and delicate ecosystems.

Avoid feeding or approaching birds too closely, as this can disrupt their natural behaviors and cause stress. By observing from a respectful distance, you can appreciate the beauty of nature while minimizing your impact on it. Birdwatching requires patience and persistence. Not every outing will result in rare sightings or thrilling encounters. Sometimes, the most rewarding moments occur when you least expect them, so embrace the unhurried pace of birdwatching and allow yourself to be fully immersed in the tranquility of nature. Take advantage of guided birdwatching tours offered within the sanctuary.

Local experts possess invaluable knowledge about the birdlife in the area, their behavior patterns, and the best spots for viewing. Joining a guided tour enhances your bird watching experience by providing insights and educational opportunities that you may not discover on your own. Additionally, you'll have the opportunity to connect with fellow bird enthusiasts and share in the excitement of bird sightings. Preserve memories of your birdwatching adventures through photography or journaling. Respect the sanctuary's rules and regulations, including proper waste disposal and minimizing your ecological footprint. By leaving no trace behind, you contribute to the preservation of the natural beauty of Thattekad Bird Sanctuary for future generations of birdwatchers to enjoy.

Discover the amazing bird species at Thattekad Bird Sanctuary with these helpful birdwatching suggestions. Make the most of your trip by following these tips and immersing yourself in the diverse bird population of Kerala.

Wildlife photography tips

Wildlife photography is the art of capturing images of animals & birds and their natural habitats in their most authentic and undisturbed state. It requires a combination of technical skill, patience, and a deep understanding of animal behavior and ecosystems. Here are some key aspects of wildlife photography:

Research and Preparation: Before heading out to photograph wildlife, it's essential to research your subject and its habitat. Learn about the behavior, habits, and preferred habitats of the animals you want to photograph. Understanding their behavior can help you anticipate their movements and increase your chances of capturing compelling images.

Equipment: Wildlife photography often requires specialized equipment, including telephoto lenses, which allow you to capture distant subjects without disturbing them. A sturdy tripod or monopod is essential for stabilizing long lenses, especially in low light conditions. Additionally, consider investing in waterproof and dustproof camera gear, as wildlife photography often involves shooting in challenging environments.

Patience and Persistence: Wildlife photography requires patience and persistence. It may take hours or even days to capture the perfect shot, so be prepared to spend time observing and waiting for the right moment to unfold. Sometimes, patience is rewarded with unique and unexpected photo opportunities.

Respect for Wildlife: It's crucial to prioritize the well-being of the animals you're photographing and to minimize your impact on their natural behavior. Practice ethical wildlife photography by maintaining a safe distance from the animals, using telephoto lenses to avoid disturbing them, and refraining from interfering with their natural activities.

Composition and Creativity: While technical aspects are important in wildlife photography, don't forget about composition and creativity. Experiment with different angles, perspectives, and compositions to create visually compelling images. Pay attention to elements like leading lines, framing, and background to enhance the impact of your photos.

Lighting: Lighting plays a critical role in wildlife photography, as it can dramatically affect the mood and atmosphere of your images. Shoot during the golden hours of sunrise and sunset when the light is soft and warm, and shadows are long. However, be prepared to adapt to different lighting conditions throughout the day.
