Default A proud Mom, A great hair (feather day?) and two more...
So carrying on from the Zoo pics..

Mother of the Cub I posted the other day ...


Some Bird of the crane family I think


Meer to come ... ok ok that was lame


Finally a Pano from near us


The Pano is a bit dark as being a numpty I had the camera on Flourescent for some bizarre reason...

Hope you like

Thank you the Zoo is very good as you get really close to the critters I did have some of this one's mate but he would not stay still and his plume was more mohican as he looked a bit dishevelled but boy was he funny!

Excellent set...and who hasn't gotten a wrong setting on their camera and made an interesting mistake? Love the bird. You were very clever in changing the perspective in such a way as to have his crown (great hair!) on the vertical instead of the horizontal. I think that's what makes your picture really stand out
