The only time..

..I feel tempted to photograph birds, (too difficult, normally, as I haven't the patience) is when our resident parrot makes an appearance. He is very wary now (attacked by a hawk a couple of weeks ago, so I'm told) but has lasted over 4 years in the open.

Hi David, nice capture and that is one lucky Parrot.

Nicely captured David. Is that all you had to do on Valentines Day?

Hi David

Nice start - looking forward to a few native species now!

David

Maggie, it's been seven years since my wife died, and the start of a new decade. Perhaps it is time to rekindle the flame of romance, she'd have to be someone special though. and with similar interests to my own. I'll see what the future holds. They say that behind every good man there is an even better woman. It's probably the reason I don't get many comments
as there is someone missing from my life.

Thanks gents for your comments.

Now that is a find .And what a way to debut your avian project.

Very nice maybe a message David?? life is for living and only those that have lost will understand Nothing wrong with your work and it has an aquired taste and one I have always liked,your macro work is spot on,with a different vision to most,so carry on doing what you love and things will turn out good,do good things and good things happen,do bad things and bad things happen,I truely believe that saying Not wanting to come over as I know it all David,but I do like to help when and where I can,all the best

Cheers Craig. What you have written, means a lot to me, although we have never met.

Very nice David
