Awh, what a sweet little thing - did he fall out of his nest before he could fly? Wishing him a long birdie life. Loree

Hi Keith, How luck you are to have the opportunity to photograph and have this wild young thing come and perch on you. Do you know if it got back to safety? I know how thrilled you must have been, thank you so much for sharing this positively delightful album with us. LotsaBigHugs, Trish

Hi Keith.. Loved this delightful heart-warming album, the little bird is so cute and you have photographed him to perfection.. Seems rather young to be out alone in the world and I do hope his mother is keeping a watchful eye on him and that he stays safe.. He might even come back for more photo updates as he matures... Thanks for sharing this lovely experience... Gladys, Western Australia.

Very nice little album of a cute little guy. Those are the moments in life that are special. And it would have been just as special even if you hadn't had a camera. But I'm glad ya did!!! This is the only hunting that there should ever be. You captured your subject, displayed it proudly, and nothing got hurt. It's the only way...

Wow! How did you manage to do all the shots? And did them so well? Again it must be magic, and a special bond.

Look at the photos, read the commentary, find out about the bird; it's species, common name, distribution, habitat, diet and behaviour.

Such great photos - you realy made them with a lot of affection and admiration. It shows your tenderness to tiny baby and your camera shows the details of his beauty. May be he will come again. Please do not miss him. What nice captions and just cannot think how you managed to hold him and make such nice photos with one hand - you a magician. Thank you for the abum

Mr. K, At the right time, the exact minute, camera-ready and clicking away at the same time. You've covered all the bases - name, rank and serial number just about and the photos are delightful. Your comments tell us a lot about you! Nature and beauty go together well in this album. Nice catch here, great timing. Best to you. ron

Keith I would not have thought this possible! I would have expected it to be spooked as soon as you moved your hand to take the first shot.. then you capture it, focussed in your hand!! Such magic moments are rare and to have captured it for us is awesome. Well done! Thankyou for your visit, I am so pleased you enjoyed that awesome sunset and the Focus on Eyes albums. Always a pleasure to hear from you, wishing you a Happy, Safe and Healthy 2008 with lots of magic moments captured forever! Happy snappin'.. hugs Susan

Hi Keith; What a great opportunity to photograph this beautiful little fellow. I would like to see him with his mama to get an idea how big he will become. Those feet look very strong and his claws would be nothing to mess with. You did a great job capturing him and I have one photo on my desktop now. Thank you for sharing. ~Marjie

Bonjour Keith, What a lucky man you are for having the chance of a so beautiful visit of a baby bird. You made very great pictures of this lovely moment. Thank you Keith and have a nice day, Marielle

Hi Keith. What an amazing experience for you this must have been. I love birds & have been lucky enough to have rescued a few in my time as well as ducks, lizards & hares,etc. ( due to the Sugar Cane burning, when I lived at Childers ). It leaves such a warm bubbly feeling inside, knowing that that another little guy is safe & will come back for a visit one day, hopefully. PS: I love your captions as well. That's one of my favourite things to do. You should see my photo albums.....Ha! Nice chatting again... Jenny

Hi Keith, This experience must have taken your breath away, it did mine. What magical moments. and your ability to carry on taking pictures, even to getting the focus right, You deserve every accolade for anamazing set of photos, and awe at your gentle patience to allow the little bird to make his own moves so as to not frighten it away. Very,Very well done! Brilliant! Greetings from UK, Sheila....PS Your captions were delightful.

What a great experience you have captured in this beautiful album.....we are so fortunate to have such an abundance of wildlife in Australia and that they occasionally choose to spend time with us makes it more exceptional.....great work!.....Helen
