  6. Wonderful shots, Bob. My favourites are the first two with its crest raised. I don't know what happened but my comment on your previous post on Jura never appeared. I was starting to get worried about you! Best wishes - - - Richard

  11. Hi dear Bob :-) I did not visit my blog for a long time - uiiii such a poor neglected blog...
    This morning I did and went over the Reading List - I love your photos as always. I hope you are fine - just saying hello and wishing you the best. I am sure the sweet grand kids learned to walk and talk since I was last here, keep enjoying them.

  26. Bob - a really spectacular series of shots. Was a wind raising the feathers on the back of the head, or are they normally a little spiky?
