I finally managed to see a Little Ringed Plover (Flussregenpfeifer, lit. “River Rain Whistler) from up close! They’re so tiny and adorable, I love them! :-)
Got really discouraged because I barely saw anything in the nature reserve today but he really brightened my day. Thank you Plover!

Seeing a glowing (b)orb in the trees is always a delight! So here's a male Eurasian Bullfinch (Gimpel / Dompfaff in Germany) after just having preened, his feathers still slightly fluffed up.
He was sitting in a tree really far away, but spotting him was simple — so colourful! Saw him on the weekend in North-Western Germany.
There isn't really an alternative to Mlem at present, so the only thing you can do is to make due with it for now and / or use the website. I mainly use the website at present because Mlem doesn't have a compact mode.
I run a PeerTube instance and the amount of people that try following my instance with exactly THAT type of content is... astonishing. It just seems like no PeerTube instance is properly moderated.

After having eluded me for months, I finally managed to see a Green Woodpecker again! I often hear their laugh-like call, but haven't been able to see them for a while. They're one of my favourites!
If you haven't heard their calls yet, I strongly encourage you to go to YouTube and listen to them — they're fantastic. They really sound like someone's laughing at you.
What problems are you facing on the website exactly? I'm just accessing my instance's website via Safari and it works pretty okay. I'd just recommend opening threads in a new tab, perhaps.
