    Another great shot. Everything pulled together. *Chef’s kiss*

  5. I like big birds and I cannot lie
    You other birders can’t deny
    That when a bird walks in with an itty bitty beak
    And a round thing in your freak,
    you get sprung…

    (This can be sung to the tune of Hallelujah, as demonstrated here.

  6. Ooh, we’ll get one or the other on rare occasion, but I’ve never personally seen both at the same time!

  7. Saw a grey heron down on the Salwarpe near me a couple of weeks ago.
    Those birds are very good at standing still.
