I was happy to be able to show you all this sad face. You didn't know birds could change their expressions, did you!! Thanks for your comments. #7551163

He looks just a little bit soggy, and a whole lot pathetic!! Wonderful capture Chris!! I just love these guys!! And yes, I have picked up on the fact that they most definitely can change their expressions!! #7551474

It has turned out sunny here now, so they are much happier & are sunning themselves on the fence. #7551538

How lucky are you to see animals like this. So jealous. #7691233

Great expression on this bird! I have a lot of expressions that I've captured, generally when birds are coming into a feeder and someone else is already there.

What kind of bird is this --that you have captured and entitled, "Not rain again." #7776331

Karen Kessler July 30, 2009

Is this one of those Laughing Kookaburras? It isn't laughing now! (I still laugh, however, when I see this!) #7797283

Chris Ebben October 03, 2009

Yes, it's a laughing Kookaburra!! You should see the poor things today, they are soaked & only last week they were panting in the heat. Our weather is changing so much, the poor things don't know what's happening, I'll have to get another shot to show you. Thanks for the comments. #8004355
