Found this nest in the garden yesterday, but for the life of me I can't quite work out what species of bird the chicks belong to? They looked quite hungry but didn't make much noise, if at all.
I lost my glasses, as well. Must pop back out tomorrow and find them.

It's not a bug, lol. Macro Monday on Flickr always has fun and unique themes. This week was "numbers."

Got out with the camera club for the first time in 4 months! It was a really good evening and great to catch up with the other members, and good to photograph stuff outside my back garden for a change!

And of course, you were showing off your new 60mm Macro lens. 
I bet the rest of the club were impressed.
As grotesque as it is, I love that shot of the fly on the bird's beak.

Thanks Brian. Definitely showing off the new macro, although it kind of got lost in the mix, there were at least 3 club members with new cameras so they got lots of oohs and ahhs.And of course, you were showing off your new 60mm Macro lens.

The dead bird was interesting, it was like it was place in a perfect position for photography, on top of a plinth and on it's back... I'm pretty sure it didn't die there! I'm with you, pretty gross, but very interesting. The fly was a willing model and, even with eyes in the back of its head (a new find for me), so was the wasp.
