Hi Charles...

Thanks for the kind words about my photography. I wish I could tell you that the pose was due to my incredible talent for bird portrait posing, but I've got to go with "pure luck." :-)

Tom

Yep I fully understand! ;-)a

This female Kingfisher dives from this stick, always catches a fish but never returns to the stick with the caught fish. I will just have to put more hours in.

This is excellent, Mike. There is a mysterious mood created with this great lighting.

Thanks Mike! This bird was more interested in singing than in my being nearby.

This shot is incredible, Richard!! I love it. The composition here is outstanding, and the background is what really helps make it so attractive.

That is a very sharp image. Nice capture. I really can't tell if that bird is a black phoebe or not.
