Nice shot Scrub.

That would be dad, he incubates the eggs and cares for the hatchlings.

Never saw one of these before...very cute shot...those narley legs make a great frame.

Thanks Steve. I too like the way the legs frame the chick, it also gives a sense of the huge difference in size between the chick and the adult.

That is cool...love mama's legs to show size proportion

Oh, that's too cute. Fantastic capture

Mom has a serious case of reptile legs going, poor thing needs some moisturiser.

Way cute....love how he/she is spotlighted, great lighting.

They don't get much better than this capture, well done Scrub.

Superb image, those massive legs look prehistoric.
