A Blue and Yellow Macaw (Blågul Ara in danish) (Ara ararauna) do a low flyby in Ree Park, Denmark

Greylag Geese (Anser anser) seems to be everywhere in Lille Vildmose, especially in the winter. They are fun birds, always making noise and watching out for predators, but they aren’t too shy. But, as soon as one of them panicks and takes off, the entire flock scrambles. Seeing several hundred geese scramble at once, straight over your head, because something on the opposite side startled them is quite a sight.

From a fish tank in Nordsø Oceanariet in Hirtshals, Denmark.
it was a bit hard to get good focus, as they were in a round fish tank that you could walk around, so obviously the glass was curved and you had to get as straight an angle as possible through the glass.

A Red deer (Cervus elaphus) passing a meadow in the morning sun. It hadn’t noticed me, but was alerted by a car passing by on a nearby road.
