Sorry to hear you are under the weather Mike :>)) Had that myself. eckkkk.. Feeling pretty good now though. Nice little birdies. I shot a little tiny bird at Vieraville while i was focusing on a snowey, it just got in my field of view so changed and shot it, but don't know what it is. I will post it and maybe we can figure out what it is. Also have a little duck I don't know what it is. Guess I will just post both and see what we have. Great shots as usual. Thank you for sharing. Hope you feel all better real soon cheers gale
Mike - Great captures, as usual! Sorry to hear you were sick. I think you might have gotted better quicker if you had just gone out on your porch sooner and watched and shot these little guys. What a great setup you have! I'm jealous. Hope you are 100% soon. Cheers, Gordon
Mike, Excellent (again....;-)). I keep waiting for this to get old, but so far, there are no signs. 8) I was driving home today, and saw a beautiful Redtail flying along beside me. I immediately started looking for a place to pull over, when I realized that I was in the middle of rush-hour traffic, and that I was going to get run over.... :lol: Thanks for the inspiration. Frank
Mike, hope you're feeling better. Love the Goldfinch image - looks like it's coyly looking over its shoulder at you with a come-hither look. Neil
Hey Mike.... beautiful series!!! I havent taken a pic in the past month, how pathetic, and too boot, we just got over a foot of snow and it is still coming down like a damn I am bursting at the seems awaiting spring, time to start heating my igloo up here.....
Mike, Good shots!! The Goldfinch is sweet!! I like the bright yellow popping out of the subtle tan!! Good going!!

Re: Hey Mike.... WOw that stinks, weather here is terrible too, have the weekend to myslef and it is supposed to rain all weekend.
Those are awesome, Mike! Damn, my 28-70 hasn't been delivered yet, and youve already got me lusting for a 300/4 :?. Do me a favor and quit posting any more pictures.
These are beauties, Mike. Not bad for a recovering sickie. Love the pose in #1, and the pine as a perch in the last, especially.
