Believe it or not, this is a bird photo and you are welcome to look for the bird in the photo.

Decided to have some fun today and to post something out of the ordinary. You will see the post opening photos, then a Goose taking off and flying and I end the post with a love scene.
Come and have a look!

Cannot see the bird? Look in the yellow circle.

There he is! A "Blacksmith Lapwing" (Vanellus armatus) sitting in the fire chopper's shade.
Taken at a distance on a very hot morning today.

Right now let's move on to "Harry" our wild Egyptian Goose (Alopochen aegyptiaca) resident!

I just have to show you how I get a shot likes this below.

This Gif will explain how I get the shots, taken in a series of 4 shots.

And finally the love scene!

Don't know what this guy's pick up line was as he whispered to the lady here!

But it worked like a bomb and maybe he should start a "Bird Flirting Club".

Just a bit of a different offering in this post, as we are now half-way through the week and we have all made it thus far.
Some call a Wednesday, a "small Saturday" and if they have it right then it's all downhill now to the weekend.
So, I am trying to ignite the lighter side of life in everyone's souls.

And That's All Friends!

Note: All photos are my own and taken with a Canon Powershot SX60HS. Bridge camera.

Very cool @papillioncharity, you threw me off with the cover. That gif you made, what gif maker is that? I have a free one but it closes the edges of the screen out in black. I like how yours is a full size image.

Thank you @dandays and it was my intention with the cover 😁

I use this free Gif maker and you are welcome to try it.
https://gifmaker.org/

It also allows one to change the gif sizes, but I leave it on the full view default setting.
Hope that you will find helpful.

Thank you and great that you saw the bird.
The chopper was parked in the bird's territory, so he used the welcome relief.

Blessings, have a good Friday and here's some !WINE

Thank you milady and the chopper was parked in the birds territory.
Glad that you liked the gifs and you just have to try it, as it is fun to put them together.
I have not refined the technique yet, such as editing and other stuff, but they look okay to me.

Blessings and have a glass of !WINE
