This juvenile Hawaiian 'Io had just fledged and for 2 days sat in a huge tree down my road, calling for its parents, who would fly in with a juicy rat or mouse and then fly off again. Eventually it flew to another place to repeat the pattern. I would see it new my house for the next month and when I did not immediately know where it was, I would follow its cries for its parents until I found it. This bird go to know me and had no concern for me standing just below wherever it had perched taking photos. While photographing it, I learned the color of this bird's eyes and that the skin on its beak was turquoise colored, being a juvenile. As it ages, the skin will match the color of its beak. This is my favorite one, with its head cocked looking me in askance as to what the heck I was doing with my camera pointed its way.

As a fine-art photographer of many years (initially in black and white large format film), my purpose is to capture and share the incredible beauty in our world. I have a passion for travel and photographing the many places I have been fortunate to explore. I am enthralled by both the grand scene of a live volcano or brilliant sunrise and the amazing detail and design of each tiny part of a flower. There is beauty and design in everything around us and the goal of my work is to share that and encourage everyone to look closely and take the time to see what is before us all.

Quite the look!
Heidi Fickinger replied:
This juvenile Hawaiian 'Io was amazing. I kept seeing him all through the neighborhood for several months. I did not always have my camera with me at first, but then started carrying it. This encounter was the most wonderful. I watched his parents come and go multiple times, bringing him food.
