A stoic red deer, calm and trusting as jackdaws tend to her coat – a perfect image of #symbiosis in nature. #deer #spaday #WildLifeLovers #royalparks – at Richmond, London

Up close with a rutting red stag — majestic, powerful… and definitely a bit too confident. #slog3 #deer #stag #bellowing #richmondpark – at Richmond, London

Graceful steps, deadly aim - a little egret taps the pond floor to flush out its prey #littleegret #london #egret #animals #birdvideo #fishing #birds #londonwildlife #wildlife – at Richmond, London

Check out the way this Whitethroat grips onto that perch of thorns 😯 The first half of this video is slowed down, catching each flicker of movement; the second half shows him as you'd see in real time. Which pace draws you in more? #birdsong #birds #britishwildlife #Singing – at Richmond, London

Pausing just for a heartbeat… then bursting into a long, tumbling serenade from its perch on the ragwort. 🌼🎶 Do you hear skylarks where you are? #skylark #springwatch #birdsong #freespirit #naturalperformer #britishwildlife – at Ealing, London

I thought his eye was injured, but this kestrel turned out to be just fine. What do you think was going on? He was keeping watch over the meadow where the skylarks nest... but I only saw catch a worm! #kestrel #cernicalo #falcon #birdphotography #wildlifephotography – at Richmond, London

The Eurasian wrens are in full voice! 🎶 These tiny birds are now singing their hearts out as the mating season begins. Do you catch the distant replies? #wildlife #birdsong #wren #birdvideo

Watch out for the eye at the end 🫣 In a fascinating show of symbiosis, these bold jackdaws pick parasites from the stag's fur - but isn't one getting too close? #wildlifeteamwork #symbiosis #stag #stoicism – at Richmond, London

Tune into the enchanting monologue of a Eurasian Skylark - can you hear any response? The first half is slowed down to capture every detail, while the second half is at its natural speed. Which one do you prefer? #skylark #alouette #birdvideo #birdsong #wildlife #SING – at Richmond, London

A lesser Spotted Woodpecker (quite rare!) feeding a Great Spotted Woodpecker nestling - odd, right? Stay tuned to see both species taking turns to feed this one chick. #Springwatch #lesserwoodpecker #Britishwildlife #wildlifevideo

Can you see his breath in the cold air? #birdsong #wren #bird. #wildlifevideo #wildlife

When the blustery winds howl, the Eurasian Wrens sing louder - their spirit as unyielding as their song. #Wren #troglodytes #birdsong #sing #nature #birdsofinstagram #wildlife #birdsoftwitter #dawnchorus #Resilience – at Ealing, London

The Wrens have returned to serenade London – volume up! And this might just be the longest verse I've ever heard from one. #wren #birdsong #wildlife #troglodyte #EurasianWren #KewGardens
