Birds 2013

From yesterday.

This one was the only one in flight of a larger group. I was making a lot of racket, probably to warn others of my precense as it kep circling around my position.

Very good done!

This guy found this baby hummingbird after it was attacked, and he nursed it back to health until it
decided to stay and be his pet. Very charming video,

 ENJOY.

Nice pic of the Godwit in flight Mark, and good shots too Valery.
The Hummingbird video was precious DA, what a tiny bird, it doesn’t look a lot larger than a big bumble bee.

Great shots All.

River Rd Ladner. Posted some from the same nest a couple of years ago. The chicks are quite large, soon be an empty nest.

david antony, good shots!

The chicks are big DA - they look like they're eyeing you up as a potential meal! Nice shots.

I like the Eagles you lot have hanging around in the backyard and in a tree down the road, good to see.

Birds...birds...birds...

You can imagine my envy, in a good way, when I see these predator bird shots taken in the heart of the wild land.. I am counting my common sparrows here and the seagull babies are already big enough to fly. No nice little seagull family story to photo-tell this summer.

Neat nest and great shots, David Antony. : ))

Thanks for sharing everyone,
