Birds and animals

Some of the birds we see most frequently in and around Thalwil, Switzerland. Plus a pair of lions which I enjoyed painting.

The heron often perches in the lake of Zurich
Penguins, from Gill's southern ocean cruise

A kingfisher, a very colourful bird, but not local



A redstart, which nested in an adjacent window
The red kite is often seen high in the skies
A hummingbird - not native but I love the image
Lion pair

A chaffinch, which landed on our balcony
