Sometimes, when birds hatch, they "imprint" on human caretakers, treating a human as a parent. In a presentation, an intern told a group of volunteers that Echo, the barred owl had "reverse imprinted" on humans. He gets anxious around us.
Echo often tries to scare us away with his often-imitated series of hoots.
Prior to the presentation, I'd wondered why Echo acted that way, but the barred owls at the other zoo do not.
This rather fearsome griffin sits in my garden guarding the entrance to the back of the garden, in fact originally, what would have been the entrance to the Victorian stable there. Built in 1890 my home was built for a Cavalry Officer, with a stable attached. What remains of the stable now forms my husbands shed! The griffin is a great guard for a shed, and he takes his responsibilities seriously.

I can see a face in this old fencepost. It looks rather old and worn, and full of character.
Happy fence Friday! Bah! Humbug!
Greylag Goose, Leeds-Liverpool canal, Cottingley Bridge, West Yorkshire. I think there were goslings nearby, but out of sight.
When the wind blew his feathers upwards it made him look so grumpy and therefore even more adorable :)

This little guy was just perched on the leaf minding his own business waiting for a fly. He was in a meditative state and didn't see my camera getting closer and closer. All of a sudden he looked up, furrowed his eyebrows and jumped off the leaf. I love it when that happens.
Well yesterday we were food shopping in Penzance, you know as you do and well when we came out of the supermarket the sky looked like a major thunderstorm had developed! My kind of conditions! So I legged it over the road (past the tramps and drug infested toilets) and to an outcrop of rocks just beside the road! Well I had 10 minutes (under strict instructions from my wife) and I managed to make this image, before the water cut me off and I had to wade back over slippy rocks to a grumpy wife waiting in the car with two (well one to be honest) very grumpy kids… Anyway the things we do in the pursuit of art!!!
