A few birds at Prime Hook NWR.

Very nice series.
The Sparrow and Wren are special though, showing there different poses.
All very nice.

nice work! I've failed to get close to these guys.... apparently I'm not a fast runner.

Hi Mark...

Thanks for the comment. I'm unsure where you're located, but here in north Scottsdale, AZ, they are very commonplace. Nevertheless, they still require some (a lot ) patience to get some clean photographs of them.
