great lookin' bird waddy .. the owner aint bad either .. !!
thankyou for the pm about budgies .. he's in the other room chirping away right now .. he's getting more and more vocal .. nothing recognizable as talk yet ..
i think he might be coming up to 3 months coz he's getting his first pin feathers .. i think he's a he altho i'm still not sure .. i've seen a very slight blue tinge on his cere .. but only slight ..
when do they usually start talking if they get contact every day and hear the same thing over and over .. ?
i'll check out that site you spoke of too .. :)

Makes a lovely picture with all those layers, and the white egrey is a great point of interest. The heat haze has a glass filter look.

That heat looks pretty scary. I'm surprised the Egret didn't have issues with the smoke, but maybe he was upwind of it.

In England, moorland is burned on a rotating basis, just like you describe. I really admire this photo - it conveys the feeling of intense heat so well. The addition of the Cattle Egret is the icing on the cake.
