To: clido e gattonero (sorry, I located the 'Quote' button too late)
Buona sera a tutti e grazie per aver invitato mi qui !
Tuttavia, mi permetta di continuare in inglese. Dopo tutto, voi stessi mi ha suggerito -- a meno che non si preferisce scrivere in olandese
So, my question earlier was whether you would prefer that I post my screenshots collages here in the ALBUM FOTOGRAFICO (for reasons of posterity).
But consider how many I have: between 80 and 90 in EACH of my two Flickr albums. Still, I could do it over a period of time.
Seeing that the chicks of Aria and Vento have started to 'spruzz' up the lens of the nest box cam, too; and that Pappa most probably will not allow anyone to come near his babies, I foresee few new pictures made by me until the day of the ringing -- or, until they start their flying exercises from the building ledge. Sorry, Gattonero, for having put those full-size shots in the commets space of your Flickr post. I will delete it.
So, please advise me.
I thank Gattonero for having posted the link to one of my two Flickr sets. But, besides the nest atop the water tower, I have another, a separate, album for Aria and Vento's brood. You can find it here:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/christinam ... 258353024/
or just go to my front page (
http://www.flickr.com/photos/christinam2/) and click on the thumbnails of the sets in the column on the right. Many many cats there, too!
Another suggestion -- for those not familiar with Flickr -- is to open the set and click on the first (or last) thumbnail; and then click on the photo one more time to access the 'light box' (schermo intero). From there, all photos show on black, and you can use the arrows in either direction.
For lovers of smaller birds, I have some interesting sets of Scaly-breasted Munias (Nutmeg Mannikins) and plain old House Sparrows. They show amazing behavior at a bird feeder in a courtyard -- all photos taken from my (open) windows in my living room. Other species, too; such as Grackles, Cedar Waxwings, et al.
Sorry for the length of this first post.
Ciao!
