Angela and Michel- Thank you much!

NYEric- you have met that woman a few times, and visited her home...

At the moment, we get to keep our dollars.
Thank you for your wonderful comments and participation.

Twenty something hours left. :rollhappy:

#6 Grus canadensis

 

[KyushuCalanthe]

#6 Grus canadensis

That was my second guess! But the body is somehow wrong - not long enough.

 

[gonewild]

#3 Porphyrio martinicus

 

[gonewild]

That was my second guess! But the body is somehow wrong - not long enough.

Small chick and the down camera angle makes it look short. ??

#3- Joanne got this one right.

Thanks again.






On pic #1, the chick on the left didn't make it.
The sibs, to say the least, were brutal.

 

[Yoyo_Jo]

Okay, have mercy Clark, which ones don't we have right?

I love #8 the best; what a face! :rollhappy:

Your photos are frigging awesome.

 

[Clark]

Well, the lovely ladies guessed correctly. :wink:
