Parent turtledove waiting beside the nest where 2 youngsters, fortunately with their adult feathers, are probably freezing under this cold rain.
I came across this pair in a very tender moment where they touched and I also was touched, for I've seen this behavior before. The parent in front and with that beautiful red eye and the sibling with no color in the eye or in the feathers, they were inseparable, and thought that this image said it all folks, it did for me.
Have a great day everyone and thank you for the visit.
My mother, who died a week ago, and my father, who died in 2006, at a carnival ball in Memmingen in 1954. My mother was 22 years old then, my father 27 (their birthdays were later in the year), and I was about ten months old at the time. Certainly my grandmother took care of me that evening.
The Red-necked Grebes have small chicks now and the parents have to constantly find food for them. This parent was dutifully looking for food when I captured this photo.

Adult Great Horned Owl and parent of the owlet shown in previous posts keeping a watchful eye (literally one eye) on the kid.
Always nice to see females with eggs! They're such good mothers though that they're infuriating, as they constantly lean towards the lens, to protect their brood!!

Mallards (Anas platyrhynchos)
John Heinz Wildlife Refuge Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Elasmucha grisea can reach a length of 6.5–8.8 millimetres (0.26–0.35 in). Males are smaller than females. These medium-sized shieldbugs are usually brown-reddish, but there are also gray (hence the Latin species name grisea) and green-brown specimen. Connexivum is black and white. The upperside is covered with several dark dots. The scutellum usually shows an evident black patch. The ventral face is largely punctuated with black. Lateral corners of the pronotum are simply beveled. The front corners of the pronotum show a more pronounced tooth. Antennas are blackish in the male, dark brown in the female. This species, like other parent bugs possess methatoracic and abdominal glands, which discharge a foul smelling secretion. This secretion is used to deter potential enemies and is sometimes released when the bug is disturbed.

A brother and I stopped at “Our Parents Place” to reminisce for a bit before going on a cruise together. It was a beautiful day and by chance we wanted to get a couple photos of our street rods. We live a few hundred apart and wanted to pay our folks the respect of a visit. We had a blast and our folks never said a negative word. Gratitude and Kindness paid off again.
