Really nice Ian. They don't land where we want so as you said, you take what you can get. :)

Thanks Craig. For some reason this iron railing is her favourite spot to perch. If I wire a branch to it, it'll be interesting if she still likes it.

Shucks, I'd be thrilled to see one of these on a toilet seat:) Your usual clear crisp shots, Ian. Well done, perch and all.

Beautiful captures Ian, I would be over the moon, but I too would wish for a branch.

Ian, this is what they do. They will land on branches and show you the perfect photo opportunity, but the moment you aim your lens, all you will see again is just the branch. I would take these set anytime than just a photo of a branch :).

These are all awesome shots of the KF :)

Hmmmm, how about wrapping the steel with bark from a fallen tree?? Of course she would'nt like it then and refuse to perch there.

Keep the fishers coming Ian, I do so enjoy and envy you with them.

Be careful out there!

John! You're here! I was actually thinking that too, if I change her favourite perch, I don't want to drive her somewhere else.
