Those birds are quick on their feet, aren't they??? ha... cute!<br /><br />You asked about the fragrance of our roses. When we order, we always order the most fragrant ones. But, you are right. Some smell much better than others. Oh how I love to smell roses though, don't you?<br /><br />Hugs,<br />BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1129438419127484980.post-29722946272099419792013-06-10T22:42:17.775+10:002013-06-10T22:42:17.775+10:00They do resemble little penguins!

Lovely to see the Guillemot's, Living in a completely land-locked area I would have to travel many miles to see sea birds. Beautiful photos and video.<br /><br />I also particularly enjoyed your June 4th post with the Reed Buntings and Meadow Pipits. Fabulous photos, you got so close! I can rarely get that close and have to crop heavily which reduces the quality, I do have long lenses but they are sooo heavy! The photos were also nice and sharp, do you use a tripod?<br /><br />Hope you enjoy your weekend away and that the weather stays good.
