Okay, so this is one of those too cute for words posts, except for the fact that I’ve got three photographs here and I need to add some filler between the pics. If you go through any of my previous posts, you’ll see that I always try to squeeze in some words between any photos. The words don’t always come so easy to me. This is also an explanation of why I post so many pics with no written description. 🙂
These three photos help document the very first day of these two Oystercatcher chicks. I have been following them since before they hatched, and I continue to do so. I was the guy to alert the local Conservation Department to this nest and now I sort of consider these “My Oystercatchers.” This was Nest #33 in their area this year. Several more nests followed. In fact some Oystercatchers are still sitting on eggs as I write this. JK

These are great shots — so vibrant the parent bird is! It’s amazing that fuzzy little guy will grow up to look like that.
As for “Nest Thirty-Three”, I think you need a theme song. Like “Car Fifty-Four”. 😉
Those babies need that fuzzy camouflage to help them hide from photographers and other predators. 🙂 JK.
Apparently it’s not helping with the former. I hope it is with the latter! 😉
I am very persistent. JK.
I’ve noticed. 😉
