We heard a lot of fuss and ruckus out front early this morning, so what a surprise to find this little fledgling crow sitting next to the gardenia bush I photographed recently! Well, his folks were frantic about our presence, but I just looked and didn't touch. He didn't move from this spot so I got a lot of photos, though I wished later I'd used my little camera that gets sure-fire clarity. Still, except for the ducks, I don't have many bird photos, so I'm delighted to have this blue-eyed baby to add to my portfolio!
@cimes1 First baby crow I've seen as well! It was quite fascinating to see that two parents we involved in his training... Thanks to being "out there" with our cameras, we learn so many new things!
@allie912 In that many babies (tigers, kittens, and now, crows) are born with blue eyes, so you think that may be where the expression, "Baby Blues" came from?
You are getting quite a menagerie of birds photographs. Everyone quite wonderful and great stories to go with them. I agree with others, I never knew crows had blue eyes!
The blue eyes on this baby are a real surprise to see. I've wished for a crow family to set up house in my tiny neighborhood but so far, no takers. I'd be thrilled to have the chance to take a picture of a youngster like this one. Great snap, Louise.
Thanks for the comment shared on the Pug pictures. I didn't think I was going to get any; she was too scared to sit on top of the stack of blocks. But without being up there, she wouldn't stand still. This particular pug favors turning in circles, constantly! It took lots of playing, petting, patting and cajoling to accomplish my end goal. And then once she started cooperating, I ended up with tons of photos and thus decided on the collage. She's a real snuggle buddy and got lots of hugs afterwards.
You did great . it`s a beauty. Fav.
I`ve read you comment. Take you time and don`t hurry yourself .
