Couldn't resist posting this picture. All day this chap had been back and forward for birdcake, for his young. The picture was taken on one of his visits (around 4 p.m.). He looked around for a while then closed his eyes for about 10 secs, before making another visit to the table.
The joys of parenthood eh?
Thanks for all your c&cs on the skimmer they are much appreciated.

This is so good. The colours and detail are excellent. Great capture of a quite elusive bird (I've only heard them but never saw one!). JNC
Not only is this an outstanding image and a fine composition, but the bird is so endearing, being tired and weary.

have to agree with the above an amazing shot so well composed everything one can hope for
You should be very proud of this shot, I would if it were mine, but it isn't, so I can only weep with disappointment.

His eyes were in unison with your shutter finger.
Was out with Nikontuk and spotted one of these but after a long wait and lots of flitting around, neither of us got a decent shot. This is super, great colours and DOF and, as had already been said...very endearing.
