Chile's Isla Los Choros is a bird and wildlife lover's delight. In this scene, the proudness of a sea lion mother with her suckling pup is evident.
Starlings are so nice

A pair of loons care for their hatchling
They received an Honarable mention in the 2016 Plymouth MN photo contest.
Peafowl is a common name for three species of birds in the genera Pavo and Afropavo of the family Phasianidae, the pheasants and their allies. Male peafowl are referred to as peacocks, and female peafowl as peahens. Male peafowl are known for their piercing calls and their extravagant plumage, which is especially prominent in the Asiatic species, which have an eye-spotted 'tail' or 'train' of covert feathers, which they display as part of a courtship ritual.
Despite the length and size of the covert feathers, the peacock is still capable of flight. The peafowl lives mainly on the ground in open forests or on cultivable lands where it forages for berries and grains, and also preys on snakes, lizards and small rodents. It makes loud calls, which makes it easier to detect, and are often used to indicate the presence of a predator in the forest areas. It forages on the ground in small groups and usually escapes on foot through undergrowth and avoids flying, though it flies into tall trees to roost. 12739

Red-headed Weaver.
The nest is built solely by the male, consisting of an upside-down bottle-shaped structure with a vertical entrance hole at the base, made of leaf midribs, twigs, grass stems, broad leaves and tendrils. Once it is approved by the female she lines the interior with bark fibers, feathers, dry grass or leaves. It is typically strung from a few twigs beneath the canopy of a tree. It often nests in the vicinity of other weaver species or even raptors. What is interesting is that the non-breading male as well as the female are yellow on the head.

When they come for Pecans they fill their mouth with more than one and then fly away to eat in private:-)
