Baby Purple Gallinule Growing Up
Uploaded: July 09, 2011
A Baby Purple Gallinule getting bigger. I loved being able to see them again. The colors are so pretty on them. They don't look any thing like the parents. Taken at Seminole Park. Seminole, FL.

Gorgeous capture Kay. Sure is walking with purpose here, racing across those lily pads. We have much the same birds over here which we call the Pukekoe. I just love them. #1391717Tammy M. Anderson July 09, 2011
Excellent details and capture, Kay. Great shot. #9518558Gregory R. Gaskin July 09, 2011
A wonderful capture and I must admit that I am quite jealous that you found a Purple Gallinule chick, very nice work. #9518815Anita Hogue July 09, 2011
Oh, he is adorable, Kay! I'm afraid I wouldn't have know what he was if you didn't tell us. Love his long legs and how he is trotting across the lilly pads! A really great shot! #9518899Gerri R. Jones July 09, 2011

Great capture, love those legs!! #9636062Judy Foxworthy August 28, 2011
Great capture with good colors. I photographed them this year for the first time. It's not easy as they run over the lily pads so fast. I'm amazed with their big feet!! #9639088Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
