  1. :-) Reminds me of a pic I have here on the door.
    A mother owl looking down at her kid that has the eyes very wide open, capture: "when you accidentially say a curse word in front of Mum" :-)
    Have a nice day, Bill, cold but sunny here.

  10. I was just about to comment that I was amazed to discover that Great Egrets were present in Ireland and then I realized the picture was taken in Oregon!

    1. I thought the same, though they are spreading northwards through the UK and it's no longer a surprise to see them in wetlands in my part of the world.

  17. Funny how animals communicate. I think you nailed this conversation! Our dogs can look at each other and know what each other is saying. It's weird but we see it over and over.

  18. The Seagull does not seem impressed by the Egret's negative comments.

  19. Well, I am hanging my head in shame!

  20. Those two don't look happy to see each other.
    I wish I knew what was wrong with my site (and yours) with the missing photos. It is a bit frustrating.

  21. Haha! He certainly does look like he's having a good ticking off Bill 😊

  22. Fantastic photo Bill. These are one of my favorite birds to photograph. The beaches and parks near me in Connecticut US are closed, to enforce social distancing, so I can't go to my usual haunts to get Egret and Heron photos. :-(

  23. Reminds me of my mom when she wasn't pleased about something I had done :)

  25. Oh my! I think he's slinking away! Talk about ruffles feathers! lol I love it! Stay safe!

  26. Looks like the one on the left is scolding the one on the right who has his head hanging.

  27. A beautiful capture of birds arguing.

  28. Lake Ewauna? I'm going to have to look that up. I don't think I've heard of it before.
