These are wonderful shots, Paul! Very heartwarming. I especially like the first one, showing the chick mimicking the parent and learning.

I should time these House Finches when they sit and eat. I honestly don't know what they do with all the calories they pile up, leaving behind a bushel of sunflower seed hulls.

Thank you Mike for the kindly comments.
The Crane Parent and Colt relationship's endearing.
Those baby Anhjingas sure play rough. :lol:

Nice shot Mike.
Two vultures are in a field, eating a dead clown.
