A Grey Heron takes to the air, after being disturbed, and yells his dissatisfaction.
An Oystercatcher shows his disapproval from the other end.
A Stock Dove, like most of his family relatives, does it silently.
A juvenile Blue Tit, just watches
And a tired Swallow, just rests a while, before continuing his long journey.
Wherever you are, take it easy, and enjoy the birds from around the world, with World Bird Wednesday.

Love the comment on the Oystercatcher
Keith. Great shots as usual.
Great birds and photos. The flight shots are awesome.
Hello!
Just found your blog and I think your photos of these birds are amazing.
Did you take that photo of the robin yourself, with one hand with bird seed and the robin and your other hand with your camera? What a thrill that must have been!
A great serie, the flying heron is a beauty ;)
These are all fantastic. Swallows are sometimes hard to photograph, but you really nailed this one. Great job!
LOL re the oystercatcher ...
nice! Love the way you fit them together. :)
World bird Wednesday, I love that...
Hi there - great set of pictures - oystercatcher is priceless!

Thank you Omi :-)
Keith, This post could become a really cool picture/storybook for future birders!
Thanks Jean. Very kind of you. :-)
Great flight shots Keith.
Thanks John :-)
A great series of photos. I especially like the Heron "yelling his dissatisfaction". I remember my surprise when I first realized that such an elegant bird had such a raucous voice.
Great photos all. For me, the Oystercatcher at the moment of release would have been a pure lucky shot. Well done.
Wonderful captures Keith!
Gorgeous photo series Keith! The Swallow is beautiful but I think the Oystrcatcher takes the cake (or should I say leaves it).
great post Keith! those herons are noisy ones aren't they? interesting shot on the second one. good thing he wasn't flying over you!! lol
Love them all but the inflights are out of this world. I'd frame them all!
Thanks Mick. Yea, they've certainly got a gruff voice lol
Thanks Sinbad an I; it was a lucky shot for me :-)
Thank you Pat, glad you enjoyed them. :-)
Larry, thanks. The Oystercatcher is a popular one lol
Thanks Doreen. It wouldn't have been the first time a bird has scored a direct hit lol
Springman, thank you :-)
Wonderful per usual!
I haven't ever seen the unusual looking Oystercatcher before. Only the pearls. Lovely entry. Even the juvenile's have their flair. You continue to be a very talented, patient, photographer. Perhaps, one day I too, will learn.
BlessYourHeart
Thank you Dar; you are very kind :-)
Holdingmoments, what impressive shots! Love the heron and the oystercatcher and that juvenile tit is just adorable!
Thank you Kathie :-)
Nice captures! I particularly like the mischievous expression in the Oystercatcher's eye!
Hilke, thank you :-)
Great capture of the oystercatcher's expression of discontent. :)
Thanks for these insights into the secret world of birds, large and small. Who knew they had such a sense of humour?!
Absolutely wonderful, the photos are a treat for all who view. Thank you for sharing.
