Caught in Flight
I caught this shot of the bird just as he was lauching himself into the air. I don’t know what type of bird he (or she) is, but that long beak looks ideal for finding yummy worms in the ground (that is yummy from the bird’s perspective, not from mine).
Green Bird at the Barnyard
Today, we had breakfast at the Barnyard in Steenberg. They have a small selection of animals and birds for the children to look at and feed; including ducks, geese, chickens, a few pigs and even a couple of goats. This bright yellow bird was living in the avery.
By the way, the food is good, but the service is about the worst you can get.
Day 166: Seagull Landing
Day 166: Seagull Landing, originally uploaded by Craig is shooting.
A seagull caught just as he was landing in shallow water in Zandvlei, Cape Town. It it such a wonderfully calm day today (especially after the howling wind yesterday). I was just walking around the vlei, enjoying the sun on my back, and taking a few shots of the birds.
Here are two more:
Seagull in flight; notice the reflection in the water.
And finally, another Seagull in flight. In the background is Park Island with Marina da Gama in the far background.

I saw this bird outside my bedroom yesterday. I don’t what it is, but I loved the colour. I couldn’t get the best shot because he flew off as I was taking the shot :-(

Day 118: Baby chick, originally uploaded by Craig is shooting.
Recently, I posted pictures of a bird sitting on her egg. Well, the egg seems to have survived, here is the little baby.
Here is the bird still inside the egg.
