According to the flickr profile they are a brother and sister photography duo working out of Taipei, Taiwan.
There are HUNDREDS of photos! I highly encourage you to explore this gorgeous photostream. Even if you couldn't give a damn about birds!
Here is just a small sampling of their incredible shots:
Taiwan Yuhina, taken at Basianshan National Forest, Taiwan
Japanese White Eye, taken at Chinshan, Taiwan
Firecrest, taken at Alishan, Taiwan
Plumbeous Water Redstart, taken at Wuling Farm, Taiwan
Vivid Niltava, taken at Xin_Zhongheng, Taiwan
Fulvous-faced Flycatcher Warbler, taken at Wuling Farm, Taiwan
Rufous-bellied Blue Flycatcher, taken at Shi-Tou, Taiwan
My brother-in-law came to housesit for my parents once and he completely re-landscaped the front yard (put up a white picket fence and everything!) and I can't remember if it was him or my parents but someone added this hummingbird feeder and a birdhouse. My parents spent many a day hanging out in the front yard watching the birds... My brother in law and parents are gone now, but thinking about their love of nature/animals/birds always brings up such warm memories...
ReplyDeleteThanks for these photos...
Also, I actually SAVED a hummingbird at my old job. It was stunned or something and couldn't move so I scooped it up into a box and took it to the vets. They said they just pumped some oxygen into a tank and it tried to take flight, so they released it. I remember asking David if we could adopt it (you can't have a hummingbird as a pet, but I was going to try) and I named him Wallace!
