January 4 - 'Activities'


well, they said it would be a challenge - Activities??? My favourites are taking photographs and drinking a nice glass of red as the sun goes down, but this grey thrush in our shed is just feeding her babies... as fast as she gets some food into them they are waiting for the next meal.

  3. Great family portrait: the incessant demand of the young and a certain exasperated tolerance on the part of the parent.

  5. I'm impressed that you were able to get this photo without the parent bird flying off! Well done.

  6. I just love the look on the little fellas face (the one with his mouth full). Seems to say 'Get out of it! Its MINE! Sibling rivalry perhaps? =)

  7. LOL - the littlest one snatched a huge frog all to himself and the others were demanding another - the parent just looked exasperated - came back a few minutes later with a lizard to share...
    I have the frog photo too but this one showed the demands of the others better :-)

  9. I stood very still behind our 4WD a little away from the shed until she forgot I was there and just got on with the feeding. It was worth the wait :-)
