I am bird-sitting Hinckley the Kookaburra that *SageKorppi is bird-sitting while she is away for the holidays. He's a great bird with a lot of character. After weeks of overcast skies, we finally had some sun today and Hinckley stayed perched near the window. I was able to get some natural-light shots of his handsome face and beautiful eyes. It's nice to get photos of birds who stay put once in a while...
The background was already very dark in the photo, but I did darken it a little more to get rid of any objects.

Thank you! I hope you can meet him one day before he goes back to his original owner. I babysat him for someone who is currently baby sitting him for the winter. I think I want to get one of my own though
This is the same person who just captured a Red-tail, so hopefully, sometime soon, I can bring you there to meet the birds. She has to train him a bit, then can bring him hunting when she can trust that he won't fly away! We won't be around this weekend, but I'll see about upcoming weekends.
She has your property in mind! You probably know that I already emailed your mom about it. I wish my other friend could have brought her birds here earlier today. Maybe another time.
