What do tigers, mountain gorillas, black rhinos and pandas have in common? 🐼 πŸ…πŸ¦πŸ¦

A small, long-tailed tit perched on the door handle, staring straight through the glass door into the living room with an expression of intense focusβ€”perhaps contemplating the meaning of life, or just waiting for me to let it in. Behind it, a garden with birdbath and bird feeders.

#GardenBirds number 14, a pair of Wood Pigeons. We have 4 members of the pidgie tribe who visit, though getting decent pictures of a couple of the species is proving tricky as they tend to fly off at the sight of a camera in the window.

A disappointingly chilly and grey day today, but yesterday was a rare cracker. Three Buff-tailed Bumblebees and a 7-spot Ladybird on heather, a Sepsis species fly and a Honey Bee.

My favourite fox (mainly because the other foxes bully her) in the garden. Note the badly scarred face, attacked by another fox or dog possibly but now healed up, She gets extra treats and any special titbits that are available. #fox #garden #Edinburgh #wildlife #photography

Unlike other bird watchers on here I don't get a lot of different species on my bird feeder as this group of sparrows drive everyone off (I do see other species in the garden). I love them anyway, noisy little bouncers that they are.
