Western Grebe and Grebettes
Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, OR
This mama grebe and her chick let out synchronized calls while waiting for papa grebe to bring a meal.
Parent grebes and their chicks learn to identify each other’s distinct squeaks and calls within the first few days of hatching. The grebettes quickly memorize the exact frequency and pitch of their parent’s voices. Interestingly though, I read that most birds do not recognize family members after their first year- despite having specific voice signatures. Exceptions to this include more social birds like geese, crows, cranes, and jays.
Sincronizar la marea baja con una buena tarde de luz intensa y especialmente sincronizarte con los paseantes de la playa, unas veces un problema , otras veces aliados inesperados.

Synchronize the low tide with a good afternoon of intense light and especially synchronize with the walkers on the beach, sometimes a problem, other times unexpected allies.

These are two of the geese that live in a pond very close to our home. They fly, with much honking, over our house from the pond to the small creek on the other side of our house .
Finally got around to processing images from the big camera. I love playing around with multiple exposures and seeing how the tiny details unseen in image capture, such as the stems of cottonwood leaves can create (in my mind anyway) the legs of diving swimmers as their teammates tread ice scarved with desert willow leaves.

I've been complaining about how far away the cormorants have been on each and every walk with Scott and Sock this week.
Well I guess they heard me because yesterday they were close enough for a shot.
I walked around the lake and managed to get close to them, but in the end I preferred the photo I shot from a distance.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

no.... there's no photo manipulation here. These lovebirds seemed to be a perfect match.
We had lots of sun showers today, and lots of rainbow lorikeets too, all displaying beautifully while preening their ruffled feathers.
Thanks everyone for your comments and favs! The Boyz think it's all a great game to play fierce. When you know them you know how sweet, cuddly and sensitive they are when you share the cookies! LOL

These three Mallards were feeding in the shallow marshy area of the lake at the arboretum. Grabbed this shot at they all ducked down at the same time.
I was hoping they would moon me but guess the lake was too shallow for them to go completely bottoms up. But I did manage to get that turtle photobomber as it was swimming around, probably hoping the ducks would stir up some edible snacks for it, too!
