Happy Easter to all those who celebrate! Yesterday, 19 April 2014, the sun was shining and I knew I just had to get out on a walk. So, I went on a walk at Carburn Park with friends, where I saw the pair of Great Horned Owls and their one owlet. My photo shows Mom sitting right by the nest and the little one who had just briefly climbed up behind her before returning to the nest. This was pretty much the only "activity" that happened while I was there, and I was lucky to catch this brief moment. Can't help but smile at the expression on the youngster's face. Decided to remove something from this image before posting - a string of bright red Christmas lights that went across the top of the photo and over the owlet's forehead, lol! On the way home, I called in at Sikome, in Fish Creek Park, to see the Great Horned Owl nest and finally saw the two owlets. Seven owls in total : ) How lucky we are to see these beautiful birds! Also thought I'd better try and give my arms a bit of a rest, as both are very painful. I have an excruciatingly painful right arm and shoulder, partly from too much mouse clicking thanks to all the extra clicking that is necessary with the new Flickr format, plus all the many extra clicks needed when working with images using Windows 7. I really, really don't like Windows 7. I seem to remember turning my arm in a strange way a few days ago, too, while either putting on or taking off a jacket. Suspect I may have pulled something. Doing more driving than usual a few days ago, when I took my daughter down to the Frank Lake area for the day, probably didn't help, either. I know I should be resting my arms, but that's not going to happen - I really must cut back, though, to give my arms a chance to improve somewhat. Lol, I could only photograph birds below a certain height yesterday, as I can barely lift my right arm high enough to hold my camera up to my eye : ( Thought I'd share the following links. I had never heard of Hang before, until I saw a photo posted by good Flickr friend, Jim (Meremail). Couldn't resist Googling this most unusual instrument, that looks rather like an upside down cooking Wok, to find out what it sounded like. Love it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDQgU1CPpis&feature=share&amp... youtu.be/Ni6mmXnqmN4 youtu.be/F0h4syLlw5g Link to image on Flickr: flic.kr/p/nfK2am
