MSA O/N October, 2025 - "Birds"

@Don_ih: I agree. Different varieties: to the rough, active/inactive and comical. There are also many different personalities and expressions on display here. Like the Laysan Albatross pose and bird in flight with the sitting bird taking notice by @BAC1967. Love the black and white silhouette scenes of birds by @Ivo Stunga. The bird posing at Perth by @OAPOli reminds me of a punk rocker.

Even unhatched birds are fine.

American crow?

It's about the right size for a crow. I found it one day on the ground (no other parts around). It's rare to find bird bones (unless you're eating chicken). It think I found it by train tracks (it was quite a while ago). I more often find dead foxes by the tracks.

Some more for the old category.(not that old but not new) All on Ilford Deita 400 120 Rome

One way to catch a bird.

At Piazza San Marco Venice

Also at Piazza San Marco. I didn't realize I caught the flying bird in just the right spot until i developed the film.

Feathered friends?

My apologies, but I laughed heartily at that.

@chuckroast - that's one purdy birdie photo.

A lot of owls here.

Taking the "any bird" angle, here are two from the OLD category, taken in 2019. Coincidentally from the same roll of film, with a Nikon FM2n, Nikkor-S Auto 55mm f/1.2, ORWO N74+, developed in LegacyPro L110 at 1:31 for 6.5 minutes.

First generation Ford Thunderbird (1955-1956).
