I can't pass up a perfect pose even if it is only a chickadee.

The birds of Circular Quay

I took the opportunity to set in my bird hide as the wife went in and bought us big mac's.

The first two shots are of a species that I believe is a one legged french fry stealer, who was perched on the table next my hide.

The next I believe is a long billed dumpster diver

Although I was not able to capture the bif action, birds similar to the one legged french fly stealer would swoop from the sky and rip hamburgers from the hands of humans as they walked about unaware.

Nice capture! Looks like you may have caught a rare one legged french fry stealer with two legs

Went in search of Puffins again this year. From earlier this summer (I'm really behind in processing...)

Starting late August each year, a GBH roosts in this spot most evenings for about a month. This shot is from the closest possible approach, but still a long reach.
