Guinea Fowl

As I was looking through the window
Something caught my eye...
A small group of Guinea Fowl
Went running by!

Their nature is quite humorous.
The speed they move is great!
I watch with fascination
As their next move I anticipate...

When I try to take a photograph,
Their backs they quickly turn!
But with patience and determination
A capture I will earn.

Hope you did or do get your picture Natasha. I love nature and I am fortunate to live in an area where I get to see a lot of it. Emilia x

Yes I managed to get a shot of them sideways on. It was a group of 3 and the pose looked in sync so I was happy... A bit like myself they are camera shy... It's like they knew I had the camera at the ready . Lol
