Title: Again!! a mother at work.
Post by: Khalli on July 11, 2013, 05:03:22 PM

Walking down a stone path looking up for a bird in a tree, I heard a sound and looked down,this is what I saw four feet in front of me

With me standing still, she just lowered herself flat upon the ground and sang out louder

knowing this behaviour to be a bit strange I looked around and found this two feet in front of me

taking a few steps to the side, she stood up a job well done, as I walked away giving her nest a wide berth

Nice shots, those eggs really do look like stones.
