Meet Limpy

 Meet Limpy This poor kookaburra has hurt it's right leg, & finds it very hard to hang on, land & walk. Each morning & night I hand out the food to keep it going. Lens aperture f/5.3, shutter speed 1/250sec, focal length 105mm, ISO 800.

Thanks a lot. I'm happy to report that this evening when he came around for dinner he was looking much happier. His leg is still not better but he might be learning to manage it.

Pleased to show you this poor bloke. He only eats a small amount, then flies off, laughing all the way.

Yes Pat, Limpy is much better these days, his right leg is just a little turned in, other than that you'd never know he had gone through a rough patch. I'll try & get a new picture to show you. Kookas are very entertaining eh! Tony got a good report from the doctor today,thanks for asking.
