FRANCOLIN, MY DEAR
FRANCOLIN MY DEAR 👣
A maturing Francolin chick cautiously steps towards the camera, seemingly not giving a damn.
Just the title sets the scene when I came across this little Francolin chick who appeared out of nowhere. The chick gave me the eyeball and, as I clicked, scattered sharply back to some nearby bushes. It was unsure who I was initially, given that I was still lying on the ground testing the focal length of my new telephoto lens. I spotted it a few minutes earlier, along with its aging mother (who sadly had one eye and one foot), moving through nearby brush. A momentary shot of a stunning bird left me happy with this rather opportunistic portrait.
FEATHERED FRIENDS COLLECTION
Welcome to our feathered friends, with their flights of fancy, twitchers' delight, and the lightest touch.
Ever-present in our lives, birds fill the skies, settle in tree branches, and thrive on the ground. Their movements fill us with delight and awe, their silence broken by delightful songs or anxious craws. This collection celebrates these moments in time with our feathered friends.
