Shoot-out: BIRDS

Scriptor had a great idea!

Thanks for the theme, my friend.

Actually, I cheated on this photo. It is one that our own Mark (B&B) shot, when he was just a boy. This prehistoric fellow is PROTOAVIS. I think Mark's real name is PROTOMARKUS. No, I'm just kidding, Mark, maybe.

We have our fair share of Seagulls, here in St. Augustine. If you have a loaf of bread in your hands, they are apt to take on the personality of their cousins in the movie, THE BIRDS.

I believe this young flier's name is Jonathan Livingston. When I approached him, he was off to soaring, and acrobatics practice.

Seagulls enjoy our fishing trips as much as we do.

It is hard to tell the difference between a hegull and a shegull.

Our granddaughters' favorite Disney bird.

Our grandson, Jared, in a perfect Swan (dive).

Could we votem for the bird on this totem?

Parenting is the glue that holds families together.

There's one in every crowd. This white duck, at our lake house, thinks it's a Mallard.

Why must I always catch the smidgens, when I look up to see the pigeons?

We named these chickens "Good With Dumlins" and "Finger Lickin'."

Even though it is often a scavenger, our founding fathers chose a beautiful bird, in the Bald Eagle, as the symbol of our nation.

This is a closeup shot of an Egret. You may be able to see it better if the gator opens its mouth. We lose many of our aquatic birds to gators, especially baby ducks, in the spring.

Thanks for visiting. Come see us. Call me in advance, and I'll see if we can arrange a Gator Ride for you. They offer them, for free!
