The only time I can get close to the nest with the hen incubating, is at night.. You can see how much of a tight squeeze it is in that nest! :crazy:

Photos are simply awesome. Honey eaters remind me so much of the humming bird. I have a honey eater that likes to visit my front garden. I was able to capture a few pics. Here is one, I like.

Well done capturing a spinebill in flight!! We have them buzzing around our yard in Maitland as well.
A world without birds is a world not worth living in :)

Watching wild birds in the garden is as great as watching those in the avairy. Was watching the little nectar eaters at the Aloe flowers last weekend.
