They sound like my dogs squeaker toys. I like their pretty red long legs though- they remind me of chopsticks for some reason ha ha :)
ReplyDeleteThey're so delicate and fragile-looking, it's amazing that they can survive much more than a vigorous wind gust.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots, PJ. Love how they walk on their red stilts with such panache.
Very cool birds. They almost look as though they are walking on water.
