Note : No birds were injured in these shots .... I am a 'Nature Lover' :) 

These baby birds are found in their nest behind my cousin's house in Penang. Heard that they hatched on Valentine's day ... so since I don't know what bird those are... I'll call them Valentine's Birds ;) 

Mr Grasshopper

I was gardening one evening, and found Mr Grasshopper happily enjoying my garden too. This one was HUGE ... I think about the size of index + middle fingers together. I caught Mr Grasshopper nibbling at one of my flowers. Well, help yourself with this one, Mr G ... for I have lots of other flowers which I hope not all will appeal to your taste :P  

Say Cheese :)
