Itchy and Scratchy

I tried to come up with a good title, but this is the best I can do. These creatures called birds only have two feet, and the feet also do the job of hands that we humans have. I like taking pictures of birds or animals in general. My favourite subjects are usually anything in action. Poses are nice, but capturing the gesture is much more fun.

So far, I have a small collection of birds signing, preening, and scratching, as you will see below: the Great Blue Heron (Heron in Action) and Sandpiper follow.
