Feathered Friends - Show Me A Photo Contest Round 22

[nelinoeva]

Hello Feathered Friends Lovers,

I hope you all are well and safe.

This week I ask you to show me photos of young birds. Could be chickens, ducklings, any ...lings.

FLEDGLING

YOUNG BIRD

What fledgling means according to Collins Dictionary

A fledgling is a young bird that has its feathers and is learning to fly.
Synonyms: chick, nestling, young bird

For me fledglings are like teenagers - not ready to leave home, ever demanding and always hungry. ☺

You can hear the kerfuffle among the leaves and branches and this probably is caused by the noisy fledgling following its parents.

Young Great Tit

Young Greenfinch

Young Crow

Young Starling

Now is your turn and I am excited what your entries will be. Be creative, show me your photo of a bird, following these rules:

• The photo must be your own.
• Post in the community Feathered Friends
• You may add more photos, but you should state which one is your entry, otherwise the first will be taken into account.
• Tell us something about your photo/s. Use at least 100 words to describe youphoto/s.
• Your photo must follow the weekly theme, which will be announced each Sunday.
• Please put the link of your entry in the commment section of the contest post here.
• Put in the title of your post that this is an entry for the contest. (Optional)
• Use #smap as a tag.

Last, but not least - have fun!

If you create quality post with more images and interesting story about them, you could be nominated for OCD upvote. Making extra effort can give you bigger upvotes.

Hello, a nice challenge, I will try to do it, I did not participate in the last round because I had photos of chulinga haha although they were spectacular of them eating, I did not want to repeat the same bird.

[nelinoeva]

I am looking forward to seeing your entry ☺

Another great theme for the week! I'll promote this on Ecency for a few days.

[nelinoeva]

Thank you Melinda for all the support!

[keithboone]

Another great theme! A small correction... I believe this is the start of week 22.

[nelinoeva]

You are absolutely right, I am sorry for the confusion. Corrected.

[keithboone]

No need to apologize, it's a big job running these contests!

[nelinoeva]

Thank you. ☺

[carlagonz]

Hi, maybe this contest is the 22 and not the 21?, i want participate but i want to know if i can use a photo of my past, even if was showed in a publication -no for contest-, because my photos of young birds are 2 or 3.

[nelinoeva]

Hi, sorry, got it right now in the title.
I think it will be OK to use old photo, but to be on the safe side I woukd suggest to make some edit, so not to be completely the same photo.

[carlagonz]

perfect!
thanks so much!

[felixgarciap]

Nice bird. God bless you.

[nelinoeva]

Beautiful photos of young feathered friends.
Last year, a mother crow taught her young crows to fly in my yard. Directly from the roof of the courtyard building. There were 3 of them. And then she taught me how to steal food from my dog. They came from different directions and she didn't know who to drive away.
But I didn't have a photo or video of the device at hand at that time.

[nelinoeva]

Thank you for stopping by and commenting.

Crows are very clever, I watched one stealing food from a feral cat. ☺

There will be new themes next weeks and perhaps you can show us some of your photos then.
