The Wildlife Camera

The Daily Post word prompt: Unlikely

This looks like a good place to set up the wildlife camera with its infra-red sensors to catch the action at the bird bath, or so I thought. It would unlikely that anything could go wrong and I would have a fine gallery of birds at the bird bath.

I didn’t count on the wisteria leaves on the arbor where I fastened the camera to be uncooperative.

Nicely positioned. Unlikely to miss anything. What? The wind has blown up.

Oh dear. Now it’s getting worse.

This is ridiculous. You can hardly even see the bird bath.

But wait. Here are some White-headed Pigeons

The late afternoon sun on the Galah is perfect

So it wasn’t unlikely after all

      1. What a beautiful bird, we don’t anything so colourful in the UK, but I love the idea of a remote camera on a birdbath
