A favourite sitting position

of the Dikkops. This one spread the feet further apart than usual.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond No Jackie, they are neither tame nor used to me. They are very skittish and are off the minute they see me. I have to hide and approach slowly. After a few shots they are up and moving further away ;-)

[Diana]

@etienne not difficult to spot at all Etienne as they are in my extended backyard, they are also pretty big birds ;-)

[Valerie Chesney]

Love those feet & your capture of those feathers is fantastic..

[Jacqueline]

Love the way that bird sits and your capture of it!

[Vesna]

Unusual eyes!
