Feather

 A bird has left a mark on my glass window.

Looks to me, he survived, as i did not see a dead bird on the ground...sigh 3x
From both sides.

Was it a robin, a finch? who can tell.

Feather

Birds are losing their feathers. 

I found a beautiful doves feather, with a bit orange purple in it.

Young robins feathers

Ten days later, and now robins orange/red fiery feathers are breaking out much more!

Its amazing how quick that is changing!

He is so cute and beautiful!

Robins feather

While I am sitting outside, enjoying the lovely weather with my cup of coffee. Meanwhile the birds are having their bath and yummy crushed sunflower seeds. I suddenly noticed a very small feather sitting between the leaves of a plant.

When I looked closer...I saw the feather was a little reddish at the top and side.

Picked it up as a treasure. It's almost certain that this feather belongs to robin. (We have here in the Netherlands the Eurasian robin, which is a different specie than the much bigger American robin. Though they carry the same name, it's a different bird.)

Everyday there is coming a very young robin at the feeding table. He is molting his little feathers into more adult-like feathers. The  orange-red feathers are coming out now and he gets more fiery everyday.!

I keep an eye on him because he is so very cute in his half baby-feathers and half maturing feathers.

It think the feather belongs to him, though it is also possible that the feather belongs to the parent, who is coming as well at the feeding table and bird bath.
 

woodpecker feather

Yesterday a young woodpecker sat in my Narnia-lamp, seeing if there was a little something for him to eat.

I noticed he lost a feather from his left wing. It took it and brought it to the 'Lost&Found'

Maybe he wants it back.

Feather

 Feather stuck in the frozen birdbath.

snow feather

 Overnight a white thin layer of snow lay everywhere.
I love the sight of fresh fallen snow.

I wondered how the yesterdays fluffy feather was doing.
It was now sunk a bit into the ice and looked like frozen all over.

Feather

While sitting before my window with my coffee,
suddenly a beautiful white feather came floating through the air
and landed on the ice of my pond.
Such a beautiful sight!

feather-seed

A featherlike seed was on the floor n my house.
It probably had traveled along under my shoe.

It looks like the seed is attached to a wing in order to go places beyond.

Pigeon feather

The pigeons left a beautiful feather in the water.

Little feathers caught in a branch.
Wind playing with the tiny thingy.

Feathered tea

It really looks like the birds have enjoyed the Flower-Tea.
Some birds forgot some of their clothes....after theTea party.

floating

In the water all kinds of autumn 'boats' are floating...
so now and then rain showers are trying to push them under.

Fluffy feather

A beautiful fluffy feather floating in the water.

Known feather

A few days ago I posted a feather of which I didn't know its owner.
S&A commented on my blog that it belonged to a woodpecker.(bonte specht)
Yesterday they visited to celebrated both our birthdays.
As a present they gave me a beautiful book, with all information about bird tracking.
In the book was the proof... of the Owner of the feather!
By more research the feather is one of his hands.

Thanx to A&S!

Unknown feather

This Morning M. arrived with a beautiful feather, which she had found for me near her house.
We wondered who's feather it could be.
Beautiful white spots..I guess a bird of prey owner.
Who can tell?

lost feather

One of the pigeons has lost a feather.

Hineni

When I stepped outside, looking for a model for my blog,
This feather fell down just in front of me.

I tried to capture it on air...while falling, which didn't.

On my steps...just in front of my feet it lay down
as if it was saying....Here am I...(hineni)

lost feathers

The baby-coal-tit who had an accident yesterday,
did not come out completely unharmed.
This morning I found some of his new feathers.
(The feathers look so perfectly new).
If you look at yesterdays photo...it looks like he is missing some tail-feathers
he has only 2 or 3 left!

They were laying on the ground and in the water of the pond
I hope he has soon growing new ones.
