Re: PESOs: Backyard Birds

[Rick Womer]

What Henk and Alan said!  I have always enjoyed your bird photos.

I’m particularly fond of white throated sparrows for their song. Philly isn’t 
in their range, so I con’t hear their song until we go to a New Hampshire lake 
for a vacation during the summer. That’s my “happy place,” and this bird 
contributes to my enjoyment.

Very nice text book images, Paul. Summer should bring plenty more.

Re: GESO some birds and LR DeNoise AI

[Henk Terhell]

Nice pictures, in particular the lepelaar.
It looks to me that LR Denoise AI does a pretty good job here.

I have installed LR classic now.
Without heavy cropping I usually don't have to deal with noise on my APSC
and FF pictures.
However I tried last week new LR denoise successfully on some ISO 3200 K-1
pictures taken at a concert where the background was completely black.

GESO some birds and LR DeNoise AI

[Toine]

Two birds shot with the Nikon Coolpix P950 (first one) and Lumix G9 / Leica
100-400.
You need to click on the zoom button to see the difference.
- Lightroom fails on the P950 shots and wins on the G9 shot.
- PhotoAI creates halos and artefacts on the G9 raw files and with the P950
superzoom it results in a new camera :) The out of camera raw of the P950
is very noisy and at full zoom soft.

Re: GESO (4): migratory birds at pulicat

[Subash Jeyan]

 thanks  Alan. yes, they are greater crested terns and caspian terns and
the plovers are greater sand plovers (i have added captions identifying
them; i thought i added them but obviously not).  we plan to go again
sometime later.

I like the Terns(?) in flight. I haven't had much success with that sort 
of shot yet. The others are Sandplovers I think. We occasionally get 
small groups of species of both at Sable Dam in the Kruger Park, about 
200km from the coast in Mozambique. They fly up the major rivers.

Re: OT: Species of Birds Named By People Who Clearly Hate Birds

[John Francis]

(I finally got round to cleaning out my mailbox, and I ran into this thread)

I pretty much agree with what Ann said (including the stupid "incredible")
iMind you, when I got to the "Waterfowl" section I found myself thinking of
Steve McQueen and his baseball (and couldn't get rid of the Bernstein earworm).

Coincidentally in the last week Microsoft decided to feature the Blue-Footed
Booby as the lock screen first on her machine then, a few days later, on mine.
This prompted me to comment that I didn't know why Microsoft thought I wanted
to look at pictures of Boobys ...

Subash, your trip was obviously very worthwhile. I'm a bit surprised at 
the abundance of birdlife in such a hostile environment but I suppose 
there must be sufficient food & water. Glad you achieved your objective 
with the Great Indian Bustard. I looked it up - the world's 2nd largest 
Bustard after the Kori which we have in Kruger but I've only ever 
spotted a few over many years. There is another large Bustard here too - 
Stanley's, a bit smaller than yours, found on the Highveld.

As others have noted, the hawk in #24 is quite nice, but I prefer #25 because 
of the out-of-focus greenery in the background.

By record you mean making a record of what you saw rather than setting a record?

There are a few that I’d prefer cropped tighter, pictures of the birds rather 
than so much of the context. In any case I don’t think there are any in there 
that I’m not envious of you for getting.  Good job.

I like the hornbill shot best .. it shows how miserably parched the land 
is without colors being washed out.. and the hornbill is nicely

Re: Pachyderm Birds

[Alan C]

OK Larry - done. I adjusted the levels a bit. I initially didn't crop 
very tight because I wanted to show more of the kopje. It was very 
bright mid-afternoon.

Great shots.  I’d like the elephants cropped in a bit tighter, and maybe a 
couple ticks darker.

Some very nice bird shots there.

A few weeks of birds

[Larry Colen]

I am finally going through and catching up with my backlog of photos from my 
trip North.

I put all of my unpublished bird shots in one album.  There isn’t anything 
super special in there, though some decent ones.  Most are from Oregon, though 
the turkeys and peckers are local, and were shot with the 18-270.  There’s even 
a tree full of cormorants.

https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/albums/72157719036794267

I think the corvids are crows.

The vultures, being backlit, were a bit challenging.  I had stopped to 
photograph some dead cars and Olga alerted me to the vultures, she could see 
one out the passenger window when I parked.

Re: GESO: A few birds

[Toine]

I think it's Anser albifrons, Kolgans in NL. White-fronted goose in
the UK and greater white-fronted goose in the US? Confusing names...
Also my translation of Blauwe Reiger to Blue Heron is wrong, it should
be Grey Heron.

Re: GESO: A few birds

I love HEron, Goldcrest and Blue Tit  -  wouldn't change a thing

However, I think the Greylag Goose must be the photo after the one that

I found a solo goose arrowing right, but the link to 4923 shows me lots 
of waterbirds in the water.. that don't look like geese but are tiny on

I apologize for calling England an island, Bob.  My bad;  I certainly know
better.
I agree with everything you just said.

Its binomial name (here) is.  Troglodytes troglodytes.  There are about 30 
subspecies, many of them endemic to islands, such as the Corsican and St Kilda 
wrens.  They all have triple-barrelled names.  There is about the same number 
of fully seperate species in the New World.

I’m sure England will be fine, but it’s not an island, and the other people who 
share the island of Great Britain get upset when we the English, as well as 
other people, treat the whole place as England...

Everybody knows where the border is, that’s not at issue. The question was at 
what point, and at which border, should various controls take place and that 
has been settled.

I hope the Scots get another opportunity soon to decide their future. 

I also think that Ireland should never have been partitioned and hope for a 
peacefully united Ireland at some time, if that is what the Irish people as a 
whole want, and if it can be achieved without a civil war.

Re: OT: Species of Birds Named By People Who Clearly Hate Birds

[Daniel J. Matyola]

You know, some of our founding fathers wanted to make German the language
of the American government, instead of English.  The area I live in was
settled first by the Native Americans, then by Swedes, then by Dutch, and
then by German refugees.  The English Army threw the Dutch out of New
Netherlands by force, as the English were wont to do.

I hope England survives and thrives as an isolated island after Brexit, but
I also hope the Scots leave and rejoin the EU and the Northern
Irish finally give up and join the Republic.   The question of where the
border is remains a thorny one for the UK and the EU.  It is hard to see
how every side can be accommodated.

The ones in our garden are occasionally visible, as they flit from one clump of 
vegetation to another.  Even more rarely they will perch somewhere obvious and 
shreik defiance at the world, before going back into hiding and carrying on 
being noisy from there.  They are highly amusing.

Re: OT: Species of Birds Named By People Who Clearly Hate Birds

[Bob Pdml]

The wren picture is from a French website. Troglodyte is simply the French for 
wren. It really means a cave-dweller, the meaning you give is secondary to that 
(when we were children living in Anglesey we called the local people trogs). 
The French version of the wren apparently lives in small holes.

After I sent my original reply it occurred to me that the (British) English 
equivalent of mignon would be sweet, as in ‘what a sweet little child’. 

Etymologically it is from an Old High German word ‘minnia’ meaning love 
(https://fr.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/mignon).

And the bird (Common Wren) is one of the commonest birds in the UK but, at the 
same time, is so secretive that it is rarely seen.  It does make a lot of 
noise, though.  So a perfect descriptor.

Quite the opposite in most cases.  Some (e.g. Smew) are onomatopoeic versions 
of the bid's call.  Others (troglodyte mignon) refer to behaviour or (horned 
screamer) are purely descriptive.  The only one that may be slightly unkind is

To me, mignon means small, as in filet mignon.  Troglodyte means "a person
characterized by reclusive habits or outmoded or reactionary attitudes."

Re: OT: Species of Birds Named By People Who Clearly Hate Birds

[ann sanfedele]

I have to agree with Mike..and I love those bird names! - they are funny 
and sometimes very sweet and/or rightly descriptive . and remember, 
these mentioned are just the ENGLISH language version of the birds 
common names, i.e., nicknames.. Not their actual zoological species 
names in most cases.

(note to that twitter poster.. ugh)

I was kind of annoyed by the headline on Twisted Sifter "Species of 
Birds Named By People Who Clearly Hate Birds is a Thing and It’s Incredible"

(it's the "incredible" that really got to me)

Much funnier (IMHO) and enjoyable are the two books by John, Ben and 
Catheryn Sill who love birds but have invented a variety of species and 
illustrated them in " A field Guide to LIttle Known and Seldom Seen 
birds of North America." I've got the original paperbacks from 1988 and 
1990..but there is a 2013 volume with a new not as cute cover on Amazon 
as well.  Lots of used copies all over the internet, at least on this 
side of the pond..

Birds!

[Larry Colen]

A friend is teaching an online class on identifying land birds in the “North 
Bay” (Sonoma, Santa Rosa …) and asked if she could use some of my photos.  I 
took the ones she picked and put them in an album:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157716872917688/

Not all of them are identified in the tags, and I think I have a chickadee 
mis-identified as a sparrow.

So, first of all if anyone wants to go through them and help identify them in

I’d also like to expand on the concept and add to this album, so it would be

Re: My Birds in the Times

Congrats, Paul! I read the Times online every morning but somehow missed 
this article.

By the way I wanted to get deeper into the photo side of things and, in the 
first draft had even described my Pentax rig, but my Times editor didn’t want 
it to sound too expensive.

Re: PESO - Angry Birds

[Alan C]

I looked it up. Interesting, well organised place. Many of the animals 
seem to be quite tame. I see both Zebra species (the Plains & the 
Mountain) are there. I initially thought your "Angry Birds" were young 
Ostriches but I see they are actually Rheas.

Ann, this was at Franklin Drive Thru Safari. It is a small-ish one, 
near a small town of Franklin, just 40-some-minutes drive from us.
It is one of very few relatively safe activities during the hot and 
long Texas summer.



We've been at FW zoo (as well as Dallas and Houston ones) - but it's 
been a while ago. I am thinking that of those "traditional zoos, I 
liked the one in Dallas the most.

Both taken with the same Tokina ATX Pro 28-70/2.6-2.8 @ 70mm.
I am thinking that I should've close down the aperture to increase 
the DOF. (But I maybe they wouldn't look as angry that way...)

Re: PESO - Angry Birds

I liked th Fort Worth zoo quite a lot - but that was way way back in 
1985 - at that point I was not aware of a Dallas Zoo.. I thought the 
Fort Worth
one was one in the same.. I was visiting friends in Dallas on my drive 
home from Houston after my mom passed away.

They may not be angry, but they’re a pretty good emu-lation.
