Do you think he might be saying OMG, another photo?

Pippan we've just had an election and as the returning party always says The best is yet to come , it's watch this space  :p
They're such an inquisitive lot and it doesn't take much to bring them running (the Native Hens, not the polies) to see what's the fuss about :-)
See what we can bring next

Yes I'm just hearing about the election on the radio. I think we can safely say that while the hens might come running, the pollies will go back into hiding until 6 months before the next election.


Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.

Thanks for your comments Mike...I see you're practicing your use of alliteration. :lol:

Ha, ha...not on purpose, Tom. I was just trying to say as much as I could in as short of a sentence as possible.:lol:

I like the look this one is giving you, Richard. It's sort of like it checking you out. Nice shot.

Excellent capture, Tom! I'm not familiar with the Albert's towhee. They certainly are limited to a small portion of the country.

Terrific shot, Jan. Once again that low camera angle really pays off nicely.

Many thanks Mike for those very generous comments. :-)
It's my first experience of a raptor up close, and never seen one habit the same place.

Very nicely captured, Richard! In this shot, it looks like he/she has fairly large feet. I realize it could just be the camera angle that makes it appear that way.

What a beautiful looking bird, Jan...and it's even wearing a leg band. Excellent capture!
