He looks very young. His beak is just tiny. I had some last year, but when I saw them their beaks looked a lot bigger.

You should have been more patient, mum would have come back. I like your photoyes

What a sweetie!  Was he concentrating on the spot he last saw mum?  Looks very focused on something interesting that's for sure. smiley

Just gorgeous! laugh

This year while I've been more observant about bird behaviour, I've noticed that the Kookaburras, and Pacific Bazas and Flycatchers I've observed feeding usually land in a tree a little distance from their nest/young, sit around for a bit, checking for dangers, and people with cameras, before going in to feed. Clever little cookies. laugh
