I think I like the picture of the field best, but the caption of the ‘seed pod’ is great!
These are the kinds of pictures I WANT to be able to take- maybe I can, once I figure out my camera.;)
Great shots!!!

BlouKouss last blog post..Sunday bloody Sunday
We had a function at work yesterday afternoon. And, yes, I had my camera handy because I was taking photos of everyone. When I noticed this yellow weaver snacking on the leftovers, I quickly changed my lens to my 70-300mm Sigma lens and started having fun!
Eating pie
Crumbs
This one is by far my favourite, and I think it’s good enough for camera club this month…
What you looking at?

MamaGeeks last blog post..A Hairy Guy Wearing a Big Gold Chain and a Little Speedo ALMOST Walked Into This Shot.
Wonderful close up. I think you’ve really capture the color of the bird wonderfully. And I like the shot with food in the beak. I don’t know about the camera club but it’s a great picture.
killlashandras last blog post..Wordless Wednesday – Us
#3 is definitely my favourite! Great set of shots!
Karins last blog post..Wordless Wednesday: My mommy and I both think I’m very cute…
I love the 70-300mm Sigma lens! I’ve finally been able to get a good shot of the pair of Louries that nest next door. They were both feeding on an orange berry creeper that hangs over our wall when I got the shot. It’s just a pity you can’t see the crest on their heads in the photo.
Louries are also known as “go-away” birds because their call sounds like they’re saying “go-’way go’way” – and that’s a much easier name to teach kids about what the birds are called.

You are so lucky. I really miss not seeing these birds this far south. When I still a little guy on a farm near Bella Bella – when it was still Warmbaths, we called them kwevoels – I think it is more descriptine than Lourie.
Absolutely beautiful birds! Not sure how I missed this post!
You did a great job of capturing them!!
Ah, a telephoto is next on my list. The shot is beautiful Jenty! So is the glass extremely heavy?
Very nice photo, Jenty! I like the background texture.
great capture! woo hoo for a great lens.
That is a beautiful shot – well done Jeanette

That’s a nice bird feeder
I would love to see your mom’s garden one day – I think you need to take a landscape shot of the whole thing
Pretty!
We have so many birds that come to our garden now, especially now that I regularly replenish the feeder. I tried so hard to get close to a hoepoe to take a photo, but Bradley made too much noise and he flew away.
I’ve noticed this Glossy Starling quite a lot in the last few weeks. It’s one of a pair nesting in a tree in my neighbours garden, and they spend a lot of time in my garden.
And then, excitement!! This afternoon, this stork flew over the garden and landed on another neighbours roof. Beautiful! At least, I think’s it some type of stork… it can’t be a crane as it doesn’t have all the features.
edited: It’s a grey heron! LOL! I think I need a bird book or something, my knowledge about birds is scary to say the least! Thanks Max and mom

It’s so nice having bird life, we too have many visitors. The latest is a Red Breasted Cuckoo though who piet-my-vrous through the night, I wish he would move on
Lovely visitors!
i like that first blue one!can’t wait to see more of your visitors
Thanks Max! My mom agrees with you, it’s indeed a grey heron!
So pretty Jeanette!!!
Cool pics Jenty. I love it when birds come to visit, but do not attract them, because we have two cats.
The second one looks like a grey heron
IF I’m right, it looks for me like a BIG BLUE HERON bird….maybe I’m wrong. But he could be a real “copy” of the bird in my post yesterday.(Wiki can solve this problem)
I like the little blue Starling too.:-)
an actual stork! that is very cool
