Birdies are ballet masters.

Forget the plie’, birdies are en pointe,

and excel at the grand battement!

They extend their limbs,

with precise acumen.

Even the goosies get into the game!
Cheers to you from Oz’s high stepping hoofers~

Ah… yes. I remember taking some photos of ibis, heron, and white egrets in Florida.
I watched a clown ballet when last week a falcon was playing with its catch before actually settling down and eating his lunch!
And Wild Turkeys! They are also good at clowning around. 😀
All these birds are great fun to photograph and watch. Stay safe and well my friend დ
I know I sent you some birdie photos? I think. Did I send you the ibis, heron, egret and the pelican who was hamming it up for the camera?
I didn’t see them…..
Thanks for the engaging images. Enjoyed your sense of humor.

Wow, what stunning birds Cindy, especially the first one, the Australian Wood Duck. The area around its chest and then the colour-blocking on the rest of the body and thin white stripes – Gorgeous! 🙂
