Junior stretching his wing

I did not flip this, he really stood watching me and stretched the other side too.

I have not seen this little family for quite a few days now. I walked to the other end of the olive grove where there are about 20 other dikkops, not sign of them either.

I will just finish this album with the last shots taken on the 24th.

Hope they are ok!

A nice pose in the photo.

[Issi Bannerman]

Great pose!

[Beryl Lloyd]

Still doing the hokey pokey !!

[Valerie Chesney]

He is such a character & he is adorable.

[Lou Ann]

Such a sweet capture. So, are dikkops flightless birds? If so, then they almost have to be in the area.

[moni kozi]

Heheeee

[Kathy A]

He certainly amuses me

[Chris]

Fun shot.

That is so funny! The first thing I thought when I saw the photo is that you just flipped it. It’s still a cute pose and so weird that he does it on both sides

[Mags]

Wonderful timing and capture!

[Desi]

Brilliant!

[Esther Rosenberg]

aww, maybe they flew out? It was a great series to follow their growth.

[Pam]

Adorable! I hope the family is ok.

[Joyce W.]

Awww!!

[Call me Joe]

He looks like a dancer with a cape.

[Carole Sandford]

[Heather]

A sweet and funny capture! Fav

[Ann H. LeFevre]

That's really a fun pose- like he's using his wing as a cape. Good shot!

@louannwarren They do fly Lou Ann although they live on the ground. I don't think they fly too high or long distances though. I have only seen them fly a few meters. But now all those living here in the olive grove have gone. I suppose they spend their winter somewhere else. I will have to google and find out. I never watched them this closely before :-)

[Lou Ann]

@ludwigsdiana well they are lovely and fun to watch, through your camera lens!

[Rick]

Great capture.
