Hiding in the greenery

Hiding in the greenery (Pica pica)

This young Magpie and a sibling had clearly been told to stay put in the pine tree while Mum was gathering insects on a lawn nearby. The two kids had been testing the boundaries and tiptoeing out onto the lawn around the tree, but when I came by they hurried back to the innermost branches and peered at me cautiously through the needles. Mum, meanwhile, simply kept on gathering insects.

I'm really not at all sure how you managed to focus on him Ann.

However, focus you did and got some of his lovely colours too. Excellent work lassie.
