Yet again another totally awesome collection of photos. I've quoted the ones that particularly caught my eye, but it's a bit arbitrary. In truth, every shot posted has been great. I'm really humbled by the skill shown on this thread.

I first saw 5 Northern Wheatear's on the dead piece of wood at my local beach. All with their backs to me. I waited for them to turn around and face me, I settled for three. I counted 9 of them in the same area. Most I have ever seen in one location.

Awesome shot, Shalu. The sharpness and detail are so nice. I think I might even consider this shot as a bird with prey.  :p

Thank you very much, Mike! :-P
