Birds

Black woodpecker in Belarus

A real close-up

Canada goslings

A hanging nest in Sweden

This bronze, enameled rooster was buried with a child around 1000 AD in England.  At that point in time, the pretty bird would have been worth $400 to $500 (US) in today's currency.  How much that child must have been treasured!
