Mother cormorant with her hungry chick.
Australian tawny frogmouth sleeps while keeping one eye on me.
Bush stone curlew looks to the sky for inspiration,
and leads me away from the nest.
Great blue heron,
with fishing line snared on his foot,
walks by me warily.
Cheers to you from our feathered friends~
Note: I thought this was a great blue heron, but my clever blogging friend Eliza Waters, informs me it is a white faced heron. I am so lucky to have blogging friends like Eliza, and you. Many thanks to all of you. It is wonderful to be a part of all of you. Keep on blogging~

The pictures make me feel like you were doing “street shots” of these birds. They were carrying their own business like folks on streets. Oh, another thing this might just be me. For some reason, I just glued to look at the these feather friends’ eyes.
I love your comment and it is true. If you are quiet and still for long enough, birds do go about their business with you around, keeping you one eye on you at all times! 😉 And I agree. Bird eyes are mesmerizing დ
Thank you Cindy. The eyes certainly have it 💛👁💛
Gorgeous eyes aren’t they & Cheers to you Val დ
Is it me, or does everyone else look at these photos over and over again- because they are so very real?

Stunning photo, Cindy. I dont know how you get such intimate photos of these birds! You must be very patient and have a good zoom lens.

I love the little tawny frog mouth – so cute! Was the heron ever able to get the fish line off his foot?
I don’t know how the heron fared. My hope is that it will eventually take the toe tip and fall off. Poor beauty დ
Bush stone curlew..Love those eyes..
She sees more then we do! 😉
Great shots! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Sande დ
