ODD SHOTS MONDAY- HIDE AND SEEK


I'm thinking of starting a range of humourous critters greetings cards. What do you think? The humans run away when they see me and my camera. Not so the animals and birds. Almost seem to perform when they see me appear on the horizon. Two minutes earlier these ducks were perfectly happy waddling about. Then in unison, it was heads down for the camera lady. Maybe they weren't performing afterall? Perhaps they were hoping I'd pass them by if they weren't displaying their heads and fine beaks. Don't be silly it's Odd shots Monday and hiding ducks will do just fine. More Isle of Man birds immortalized as greetings cards coming soon. Well it will be if they keep behaving like this!

  1. Like your idea about the animal cards! Like these photos, too. I'll keep my eyes open for such shots, and will be sure to carry my long lens more often.

  4. Synchronised hiding - love it! All this hiding from the camera could give a photographer some kind of complex.

  18. Very funny that they both did it at the same time!

  19. How comical! I wonder why ducks do that.

  20. I think the cards are a gret idea! I'd love to see them. This is a cute post, the story made me laugh.

  21. It must be a conspiracy as it is so well synchronized.

  22. This photo would make a great greeting card. Birds can be funny like this. A parakeet that I had many years ago would turn his back on me when displeased. His philosophy was "you don't exist if I can't see you." Maybe these ducks had the same idea.

  27. Great shot. I got some like this yesterday but I don't think they all hid at the same time! I do find it quite funny how they hide their heads and definitely odd!
