Large View Please,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This young chick looks very alone in its position near the top of the 64 m sea cliffs at Duncansby Head which is the far North east corner of the British mainland, as it patiently waits for parents to return with food
although not sure of the species, a herring gull is the most likely I would guess but any help would be more than welcome

Some day I will do as I'm always threatening to do and start a Flickr group just for these types of shots.

You've got the target, you have just focused in and bam...an ass shot. lol

This darling Emu chick is mesmerized by a metal ring at the side of the chick brooder it's in with its many clutch-mates. A chick brooder is a specially designed, enclosed area that can be kept at a precise temperature to make sure the babies are warm and comfortable. Everything at the High Cascade Emu Ranch was perfect in every way for every bird and at every stage of their lives. I am extrememly critical about animal welfare and I was very impressed by every single detail. From chicks to juveniles to adults, their facilities were spacious, safe, clean, and comfortable.

(This picture is part of a series of shots taken at the High Cascade Emu Ranch, where I went with my husband on a photo club outing. I'll be showing many pictures of my visit in the coming weeks!)

I've uploaded two other pictures today and I hope you'll visit them too!

Thanks to all of you who have visited and have left comments and favorites! I try to go to all of your pages within a day or two and is a highlight for me to see your beautiful photography! :)

Steve and I got the opportunity to go on a private tour of the High Cascade Emu Ranch back in May, and we even got to visit the nursery! In fact, everyone who wanted to hold a baby Emu was given the opportunity, and we were allowed to hold our chick for as long as we wanted! Kay, who is one of the owners of High Cascade Emu Ranch, gently picked up one baby after another out of the brooder and nestled each into our protective hands. Then the room was full of cooing and sounds of pure bliss and peeping babies. Here is a picture of Steve cradling his baby, lost in love. Below you will see a picture of one of the photographers, Amanda Richter, and a picture taken by my friend Nancy Magruder, of me, showing us in pure bliss with our little babies!

Adorable Juvenile Emus

Janet Brien has posted:

Like other birds, Emus grow up very fast, and are full grown by 5-6 months old! The stripes they're born with help to camouflage them and fade within three months.

Males are the dominent parent from the time the eggs are layed until the chicks are on their own at about 7 months old. The female leaves shortly after laying eggs--though some will stay until the eggs hatch--and will often lay other clutches of eggs with up to two other males during the breeding seasion. The male incubates and turns the eggs up to 10 times a day and will rarely eat or stand up for the 8 weeks of incubation, surviving on stored body fat. After the chicks hatch, the male protects the brood and teaches the chicks how to find food. Chicks will stay with the family group for about two years or until they find a mate to start a family with whey they are sexually mature, which is about 18 months old.

For more information about Emus, Wiki has a wonderful source here: Wiki:Emu
