There are now only 3 babies left and they look like survivors!
I thought that you would like to see how they've grown and we have lost all to the predators except these last three little ones. I must also sometime show you how the babies climb the oak tree in the garden late afternoon, to sleep under the moms wings at the top of the 20 meter high tree!
But for now, here they are!
This is the smallest one of the three!
And this is the sleepy one!
The little guy at the right is flaring his feathers in the afternoon sun!
And here they went to the front of the garden to scratch for some insects!
This hawk patrols the garden early every morning!
And the Gymnogene (Harrier Hawk) patrols in the late afternoon!
Some say that Crows are bad! Not this one as he escorts the hawk away amid loud alarm calls so that the smaller birds can scatter to their hiding places.
The last photo reminds me of the good and the bad guys in our lives'!
Scam predators that try to clear out accounts with false messages and other human predators that we have to face in life. So many people are caught out and lose everything to the evil fraudsters and I especially think here about naïve old people that lose their entire life savings. We are no better off than the keets.
And of course, I see the law as the crows with both evil and good reputations.
Makes one think doesn't it?
We hope that you have enjoyed the pictures and thank you for visiting
