Unlike many duck families on the pond which are managed by single Mums, both male and female Grebes jointly care for their youngs - with love and devotion 😍

Black Skimmer Chick (Rynchops niger)
This little chick kept it's parents on their toes as it was running around. It did listen to them once in awhile. Nickerson Beach Park, Long Island NY.
Une succession de barrages dans les marais qui s'étendent sur la rive gauche de la Durance à hauteur de Remollon ont donné naissance à plusieurs étendues d'eau aménagées pour les loisirs : voici le site des Trois Lacs, sur la commune de Rochebrune (Hautes-Alpes). Ce site dont la fréquentation reste modeste est fort prisé des familles du sud-gapençais qui y trouvent un cadre verdoyant et frais même quand le temps est particulièrement chaud comme cet été, et peuvent profiter de diverses attractions loin de la foule qui s'agglutine à Embrun, à Savines, à la baie Saint-Michel ou même à Chanteloube près de Chorges. Ils y viennent d'autant plus volontiers que l'on y a pied sur une très large étendue où l'eau est bien plus chaude que dans le grand lac de Serre-Ponçon, permettant aux enfants de barboter joyeusement sous le regard serein des parents.

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!!

Pictures with Zeke, Joaquin, Garett and Andy at their house. The kids are Jewish, Mestiza (Mexican Indian/Spanish) and Cherokee. I love taking pictures of siblings, but it was also neat to work with brothers. Somehow I managed to get a bunch of sisters together, but this is the first brother set. They're the same as girls in the sense that they are young and respond well to the camera. I like how two brothers can have the same parents but such different hair. I suppose that will also be more evident when I put my eventual self portraits up with Rachael's.
Joaquin was a total ham. You can see in some pictures he's literally dancing in the background. Or the foreground. But hammy kids always love the camera, so I love them. Zeke, the older boy was not as energized, but he had a quiet brooding intensity that photographed well, too. I've learned so much about working with young people on this project. I can say I'm a fan of their energy and passion.
While both parents are diving to catch tiny fish, the six and seven days old loons are stretching and waiting…
A parent bug nymph. Went back to see if it is still there on a following day and it has disappeared. Other benches in the gardens all still have their little shieldbug nurseries. Wonder where this little dude is?
