Do these birds normally have long toenails?  Such a lovely bird.

To cling to a branch with, I guess.  Nature provides the necessities.  You were lucky to get so close.

Beautiful yellow coloured feathers, lovely shots. Thanks for pointing out the long claws, M-L. No wonder they can hang onto the side of tree trunks.

Awesome detail M-L. The young ones do look a lot different.

Cheers, Owen.

Talking about long toenails, have a look at the feet of this female White-throated Treecreeper. That's long!!

not a very good photo, but you can still see the feet. DSC01184 (3)
