Mice beware...!!
| With my camera in the car last Sunday I took a quick drive to a mates farm to get some grain for my backyard chooks. Mice live a risky life in this neck of the woods!  |
| Australian Kestrel on the lookout! |
 |
| Black-shouldered Kite with freshly caught mouse! |
 |
| Mmmmmm..... tasty!! |
 |
| Belly full... sun on the horizon.... time to find a roost for the night! |
 |
| and as soon as the sun has set... the nightshift are ready to roll! |
Great shots Chris, love the Kite on the pine cones. Can envisage a painting of above and below ground with the mice huddling in their burrows saying "you go" and the others saying "no, you go!" Kestrel shot is a stunner as well, cheers, Richard
ReplyDeleteThanks Richard! Hadn't thought of that option! I like it! Wonder how many field mice die of old age? Between all the predators on the ground and in the skies, wouldn't like to be a mouse!
