    I always enjoy these series. Songbirds are so beutiful and your ability to capture that is inspiring. Your first image you missed the / inside the brackets so it did not display properly.
    flying home today, wish me luck :^)

    Very nice series Mike. I'm starting to take a few more yard bird / creature shots and I'm learning that it isn't easy to get everything just right. These are good examples for me to study. :smile:

    i always know what to expect when I visit one of your threads and this one doesn't disappoint! Like Gale, I really like the dove shot. You capture them in a way that really showcases their beauty. Great job on all of these!!
