Alabama Songbirds, Mallard Ducks, and Coots in Decatur, Alabama on 3-14-2019

Red-Winged Blackbirds, Common Starlings aka European Starlings, American Robin, Mallard Ducks, and Coots photos taken in Decatur, Alabama on 3-14-2019. These were taken using a Nikon CoolPix P1000.


With the help of a monopod (instead of a tripod), I am improving in my photography skills as I train myself using the Nikon CoolPix P1000. This has an amazing 125X Wide Optical Zoom and takes photos between 4.3 to 539 mm.

In the late afternoon and early evening, I took pictures of the following:

  • Red-Winged Blackbirds
  • Common Starlings also known as European Starlings
  • Mallard Ducks
  • American Robin (using a flash)


I took the following pictures yesterday in the sunnier part of the day:

  • Mallard Ducks
  • Coots
  • American Robin


These are my favorites of this group. Since they are labeled, no further identification is necessary.

FYI - I found out that the European Starlings are considered an invasive species. Also, many of them were taken in the treetop across the pond.






















I am so excited with the potential of this camera. I also am enjoying this opportunity to try to improve on my photography skills.

Have a great day! Thanks for visiting!
