Two days ago in the Park, I watched one of the most frenetic of birds: a Golden-crowned Kinglet. By the time it was spotted and the camera pointed, usually the bird was gone.
Then yesterday, four Trumpeter Swans were spotted far along the shore. They remained in place as I walked the kilometre and a half. While not completely unconcerned by the passage of humans along the beach, they were certainly nonchalant.
The Golden-crowned Kinglet is caught in a rare moment between bursts of speed.
It is not that it even seemed aware that it was being watched, but that it had to hurry to the next delectable.
It is instantly off again.
Contrasting the frenetic kinglets are the languid swans, which hardly moved for an hour.
I love how you caught the swans seemingly engaged in conversation (and maybe two lookouts?)
How nice to take a little “Alistair” break in a busy day.
Lovely photos as usual.
Wonderful pictures, they make my day. Thank you.
