Nice shot. If it is actually something called a Bin chicken then it’s a great capture!
Thanks Chris for you taking time to offer your kind comments on my meager photos. I know it takes a lot of time to do so. I follow only about 8 people and try to comment on their shots. I find it a challenge. So, thanks.
@walterpigeon In Australia we always call the Ibis a bin chicken or maybe a picnic pirate. But despite their name I have rarely seen them in or on a bin, so this capture was a bit of fun. They're usually picking up rubbish around the bins not on them.
As for commenting on the photos, I like your images and I feel terrible that I am struggling to keep up with comments and posts to you and many others at the moment. I am a university student (again) doing a second degree including a summer unit. I have six children and 13 grandchildren and a husband who works full-time still. Life for all of us here is full-on and kudos to anyone who is religious in their comments and posts. I do what I can, when I can and your life is probably as busy as mine so don't feel guilty for not commenting. I certainly don't mind nor do I expect it but I do appreciate it. Cheers Dennis and thank you for the comment :)
