Juvenile by judithg

Juvenile

I know the focus is off but I liked the colours. This scruffy little bird appeared to be stuck in a tree and I missed a nice sitting shot by rather noisily checking that it was alive! He came to his senses and was in the process of moving off here - still looking a little bewildered. Adolescence is such a vulnerable time and our current multiple UK stories about teenagers getting into terrible situations with the internet break my heart. And make me even more thankful that there are also positive communities like this one that enhance lives.
Five GT:
1. Nigel went to a karate 'Sparathon' (101 sparring bouts) yesterday to raise money for Bristol Oncology Unit. It sounds like a great event that raised lots of money.
2. One day Nigel may walk normally again...
3. One day Adam may walk normally again after his baptism with fire with the hockey season.....
4. I stick to walking for exercise.
5. Firemen in Extras

This is a great shot Judith, the colours and background are lovely and the bird is just perfect with all its feathery detail and funny slitty eye!

He does look a bit lost - maybe he had a hard night on the town last night. ;)

lovely birdie! and LOL to 5GT! I ought to join forces with your boys as being someone who is struggling walking...I think maybe you're right - walking is the way to get exercise in - still only another 5 weeks and I can stop all the ridiculous stuff I'm doing an concentrate on walking up big hills and swimming!!

The focus looks fine to me. I love the bird's uncertainty. Ah, the vulnerability of all young creatures.

He does look a bit bamboozled! Can't feel sorry for birds, though, there are too many of them particularly sparrows!

Beautiful little bird, I'm glad it was OK. Hope your family can move properly soon!

A beautiful little bird, lovely dappled feathers, I do hope he will be ok.
