Thought some of you might like to see my baby. Seems only one survived.

Hello Jack,
That's a very nice one!
A duck was visiting my parents with 13 juveniles every day. One day there were only 12. Within one week only 9 were left. Tough

Smallest bird in the UK (9cm) along with the Firecrest, your little fella looks well preened as they're usually quie plump, great photo mate

Thanks guys! Nothing beats actually being there as they talk back and forth. There have been blue jay babies and they are not exactly cute. Similar for the nuthatches and chickadees.

Not really into bird shoots. But took some on a recent safari. There's a nice variety of birds to look at and photograph.
(and if someone can tell me why my pictures are not scaling when I post them here so I can fix it - that would make for even better viewing!)

lw - Really awesome how the owl is framed by the tree trunks.

IslanderMV - Wish I could get that close to our turnstones.

Sitting on a rock in the mud hoping these guys would line up, though just minutes after the bank starting casting a shadow :/

That's a very nice shot, ERHP. I really like it.
