Thank you Shalu. You will be getting shovelers pretty soon because there are a lot where I photographed this one.

Beautiful shot of the eagle hitting the high notes, Shalu. I noticed that it's sitting on a pretty crappy looking branch. :p

Something a little different, my in laws had an incredible function for Amy and I for our 25th Anniversary yesterday ( it was a complete surprise). They themed it around our like for bird photography. They had favors filled with bird seed. So I figured we will make a Thank you card with an actual bird using it. We where very moved by the entire gesture.

Here is the pic we will use

Just like I said on Texas Birds and Butterflies, a couple of great shots of this guy Bill! The partial leucism on this guy makes him really unique looking.
