On a little lake just outside our back yard there have been several BN Stilts making lots of noise for the last few days. Today caught one on a nest. BTW can we post videos on this, have one of the Stilts angry at some nearby Killdeers.

Love this! I think that these are the Audrey Hepburn of birds...so elegantly turnout.
Must that this is not a bad backyard view at all either. Baby BN Stilts...lucky you!

I was in Hawaii a couple weeks ago and caught Black Neck Stilt Chicks.

They are so cute! I've seen any number of stilts but I don't think they nest here. They have got to be one of the cutest babies I've seen

Dawg,
Great shots. There are two nests now, hopefully get some shots close to your quality in around 24 days.

Thanks. We just got a new camera and I am still learning how to zoom and not lose the birds. I was shooting these guys through a fence. I never knew taking pictures could be so exhausing.
