I'm not going to become one of those train photography nerds, but it's not like I don't understand them. Trains are neat!

Last shot of a swallow for this year β they're starting their southward migration just about now.

Just a crow eyeing me part suspiciously, part hungrily. (That blurry blob is a pigeon.)

Thread time! (1/4)
A few weeks back, while birdwatching at the Eckensee in Stuttgart, I witnessed an Egyptian goose trying to kill a wayward gosling β its parents were at the other end of the lake; they took some time to show up (you'll see them in two posts' time).
Necessary spoiler: Thankfully, the chick survived!

I've been delinquent about posting waterfowl on #waterfowlwednesday lately, so:
The cutest little Egyptian gosling. (Something's happened to its upper beak β a wound? Seems to be healing well, though.)

Various kinds of birds (notably, a bunch of black-headed gulls and a great egret) down at the lake.
Left the camera running for 10 minutes (planned for more but my gorillapod was increasingly at risk of toppling β forgot my lens's tripod collar, so things were rather front-heavy), then sped the footage up so it's only 30 seconds.
