My kids spotted this little one on the ground one morning.  He (or she) was very tame and allowed us to come very close before the kids scared him up a tree.

 

 

When I started this blog, I decided not to post endless pics of my children.  That’s what I’ve got a mommy blog for, right? Right!

 

But every now and then I just have to post a picture that came out really well…

 

 

This is something we see very seldom, a misty morning.

Misty morning

You don’t?  Here’s the link to the first post about them: Spotted Dikkop

 

One of their eggs disappeared from their nest.  For a while they were very upset with anyone coming close to their area.  They’d stand there with their wings spread, hissing at the intruder.  Eventually the little chick hatched.  I took these photo’s soon after the little one got active.

 

Oh Yeah?!

 

A family portrait

It’s been a while since I’ve posted pictures.  Here’s two that I took in my garden. The first one just screams “that’s life…” to me.
