Daily Photo – Hatchlings
Published May 29, 2009 Daily Photo , Photography 2 CommentsTags: Birding, Taiwan
I think one of the neighbors scared the parents away briefly because when I looked out the door shortly after posting the video the parents were gone. I noticed they weren’t in the nearby places they usually fly to when interrupted so I quickly grabbed a shot and went back inside. As of taking this picture, two of the three eggs have already hatched and the remains of the two eggs have been removed by the parents.

The Second Annual Worldwide Photo Walk will be taking place on July 18, 2009. So far, two groups have sprung up in Taiwan: One in Taipei, led by Craig Ferguson and the other in Taichung, led by Mark Forman.
Signing up is easy! Simply click either of the cities above [or find one closer to you for my non-Taiwan visitors] and fill in a few boxes. For those attending the Taichung Walk, I’ll see you there!
A pair of Japanese White-eyes [Zosterops japonicus (綠繡眼)] made a nest in a small potted tree a couple meters from our front door. I took this video from inside through the screendoor using a D90 and and 55-200mm f/4-5.6VR lens. This is my first video using the D90 so I haven’t quite figured out the optimal settings for making streamable videos. The letterbox and text was added using iMovie.
