A Mother's Heart

Feb 2012 Challenge - The Affair of the Heart

Mrs Brolga Crane (Grus rubicunda) sitting on her nest of eggs at Auckland Zoo.
It was so exciting to see her sitting so close to where the visitors walk, but she won't move off her nest.

Canon PowerShot S95
1/500s f/4.9 at 22.5mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Did you see the Brolgas dancing dear
When you walked alone today?
Are the ranges clouded now or clear?
Are the tiny bush flowers bright and gay?
Beautiful
