White Terns again: first one just sitting on it's egg, the second one... well I think the fish is even more interesting (Needle Fish) - I choose this photo because it's proving a Needle fish, not Half-beak fish (we have few species around from both families). I think it's a young parent: the fish was longer than the baby and was not accepted. Poor parent tried hard to feed the baby (I have no idea when it started but in my presence it was ~40 minutes). Judging by the shape of the fish it started long time ago (I don't think they go after dead fish)! Finally he/she ate the fish by him/herself !
And Red-crested Cardinal - juvenile (adults have bright-red crest without darker spots).
