Thematic Photographic- #307 Birds of a feather

"It's not enough to have the feathers.  You must dare to fly!" - Cass van Krah


Thematic Photographic 


Carmi is calling for, "Birds of a feather" so let's see what we can fly in!


Did somebody say feathers?



Oh my, the feathers for this momma bird are going to be huge!



Last but not least, Educated feathers!



"If you keep your feathers well oiled the water of criticism will run off as from a duck's back."  Ellen Swallow Richards

Its a European Grey Heron, Karen, though I must say the feathers can look bluish! We don't get other sorts of herons here, though we do get egrets, which are a variety of heron, only white!

So funny - you made me smile!

I just hope your chicken did not lay those eggs. How many feathers would be needed to feather that nest?

This post brings back memories. I was fishing with my daughter in a small boat on a mountain lake years ago when a huge Golden Eagle swooped down right over us for a good look. I could not believe the wingspan on the creature. I'll bet those eggs could be hers.
