Maritzburg Birds

Posing bird

Bird of Chance

Sleeping Swan

Purity

Peaked Interest

Catatonic

The photographs in this post were all taken in Maritzburg. I went to stay with a friend there during the holidays and we went to the zoo. There I saw these beautiful birds. The Yellow budgie was such a poser and kept coming closer to the camera and then walking away, turning and coming back as if he was posing. The little bird on the roof was a lucky shot. We were looking at the lions and as I turned I saw the bird and I just had to have a picture. I took the crane shot because it genuinely looked as though they were mates, the way the standing crane looked after the one on the floor. The swan pictures just reminded me of purity once I had edited the black and white. The last picture with the caption "Catatonic" was called this because this bird just stayed in that position the whole time we were at the zoo. These are just the birds that I took photos of and more will come soon.
