Two blended shots of a juvenile Black-faced Cuckoo Shrike come to cadge food from a compliant human. This is one of two chicks, each with very different personalities. They both come looking for food, but this is the more assertive of the two. It has learned that I will throw food onto the roof for it, as I do for its parents. Last week it waited on the roof for the food, this week it hovers above the roof and dives to pick up the food. This is their natural behaviour and it's wonderful to see this little bird grow and learn so fast.
As seen on a walk.
This hill is often used to teach drivers, as you have to weave in and out of passing traffic, but here he or she has the road to themselves.

I am guessing that this is a juvenile starling and it has not taken it long to suss out the fat snax feeder here at Chez FatSnax . It has been a bit of a battleground here at the feeder with magpies , jays , starlings , sparrows , bluetits and even the robin all trying their hand at getting to the fatsnax ! The pigeons come in and land on the roof of the bird table and have serious trouble working out how to get at the bird table without sliding off of the roof on the table - the idea of working out how to land and scoff from the feeder is way above their paygrade Therefore , one has to ask why the pigeon have one of the biggest populations around our towns and gardens when their IQ level is so poor ?
But for the starlings like above they seem to have more about them even if they are a raucous lot and get called " The Squabble Squad " here .
I took this shot through the open patio door standing in the middle of the living room .
I really dislike people being trained on a single decker. You need to have the awareness of a high vehicle, so you are looking for overhanging trees etc - and signs on bridges!
Through the side window you can see the sign for Bancroft's School, so we are in Woodford. Sensible size to learn on too.
This picture was taken for the Knot & Co. Summer 2017 contest, I did not win BUT if u never enter u never will of known :)
I went to Knot & Co and had a wonder around the shop to see what I could use in my photo for the competition, I decided on this skateboard even though I have never skateboarded in SL or RL, this is how I imagine my self to look, wobbly as hell and out of control lol

Good car I learned to drive on. GTA 390 Hi-Po C6 335hp. Lets start off small. Similar to first live concert. Start small,Beatles.65
I heard about the Kingfisher parents always shake and toss the fish's head before they feeding their chicks; seeing this young Kingfisher imitating the move with a stick was absolutely stunning! Very educational indeed!
Running 80 minutes late Network Rail 97303 departs Carlisle platform 7 for Mauchline junction on Driver route learner. The station is getting a fresh coat of paint. A good job it is inside with the rain pelting down.
With an unusually positioned cone on top of the building on the left, D6851 (37667) rattles through Saltley with 0Z37 Nuneaton Civil Engineers to Didcot TC.
Buses operated under contract to run in London must be red. Outside of London, in general operators use their own company livery - and also for training buses not used in service, as we see here, with Arriva's blue learner vehicles lined up at Enfield garage.
It happened again. Phil the Perch talked Spike the Pine Needle into going swimming even though Spike knows he can't swim. Not only that, Spike had to bring his whole family with him so everyone nearly drowned. Fortunately, Steve the Ibis was near by and saved Spike and his family!

At last started to see some young Kingfishers attempting to fish by themselves which is lovely to watch as they can be funny in the way they are busy practicing to find their own food. This particular Juvenile Male was doing very well and seemed to be very confident.

It was interesting to watch these learner Scuba divers in the shallows of the clear blue waters off the Portsea Pier. The beach behind is the opposite side of the pier, closer to the eastern part of the curve that leads to the Heads. Portsea has a large number of wealthy inhabitants and a lovely Portsea Hotel that overlooks the pier and the yachts moored nearby.
While Della was at the beach with her Lab friend she learned how to fetch a bumper. She was a little tentative at first but learned very quickly!
We enjoyed watching this young fellow learning to control this gondola. Lots of laughs from his companions and us.
After our Dolomites hike last September, we spent four nights in Venice, staying in the Cannaregio area. Exploring the streets of Cannaregio on our first day in Venice. A guessimate of the location.
