Frogmouth chick progress and Square-tailed Kite

[Paddy]

A week on and Tawny Frogmouth nest near my work has a couple of rapidly growing chicks and a doting mum.

Closer to home at Newstead, the Square-tailed Kite father gets ready to set off for the morning hunt as his lady sits on the eggs.

Both shots taken with Canon 500D and 100-400mm lens
