a year has passed since my mother passed away on August 14th...
how time ....? (!!!)
a very busy year, when 'life stood still', while clearing out a house and garage took like forever, but also very educational... learned a LOT about human nature... it seems to be a classic?, that (the majority of) people seem to go into 'corps picker'-mode (literally translated from dutch, get what I mean?? ;-)) when someone passes away??
meanwhile, missed you all a lot!!
my mother loved (drinking coffee and) browsing the RR galleries on my computer.
1 of her fav pics was 'romantic encounters'. because she thought the storks were sooo sweet.....
about the pic?
may 26th 2012, a newly hatched baby
love the expression on ma stork's face -in zoom-, marvelled?
based on the info on her ring, she's just 2 years old. a teen mom & her 1st?
so the wild storks built a nest on the terrain of the bird shelter. discovered 2 babies on may 24th. was invited to climb a ladder, that was up against the fence on may 25th. at noon!! hence the horrific pics, despite underexposure.
topsports to capture pics of the babies!! they surfaced only occasionally, nest was very deep with them popping up for secs at the time mostly. they were sooo small (macro lenses, tele-converters?? ;-D -pics shot with 600 mm- some + converter)

Pure delight to view. I did a painting of a stork once carrying a baby, and realised what beautiful faces and eyes they have. hugs Jane xx
