Very well worth the climb. Also enjoyed the natural looking studio you were able to construct with just the pinking shears.

How very fortunate you were to get close enough to see them Nf


How very fortunate you were to get close enough to see them and to photograph them. It is a rare thing to see let alone get a pic. On a side note, why does the mom always lookmso angry? ;-D

What a nice high view point you found, Vern. But how did you get the birds to pose in just the right spot for framing the image? Great shot.
