Catmendo Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 Same bird, same location, only this time I carefully and ever so slightly cleared an unobstructed path to the drumming log, here's the results. To start off with, since this pose could pass for Mr. ruffy conducting an orchesstra, we'll simply call him the "conductor". I found these next two interesting as it depicts the birds with his wings completely strecthed in what seems to be their highest position. Here his wings are fully cocked back , his chest stuck out as far as it can possible go as he get ready to begin his infamous drum roll...

Birdsong Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 Beautiful! You did it. I would call him 'Maestro.' Or I'll call him 'The Conductor' and you 'Maestro.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
