It's a Long Way Down.
They've all flown now and won't be back until next year but earlier this summer this fledgling Purple Martin was less than impressed with the prospect of taking her maiden flight. Despite repeated coaxing from both parents she was very hesitant about launching herself from on high. She kept looking at them and then looking at the distance to ground and she just didn't want to take flight.

Cute photos! I am sure he took his maiden flight and did just fine! Have a happy day!
That is an amazing shot. It looks like you were right up there with him!
I think he did Eileen. Hopefully he will return again next year :)
The joys of the zoom lens Roberta :)
What a cute observation, I hope the purple martins return next year!
Me too Diane, they make me so happy.
