What an amazing 2 shot series, Paul! You got great focus on both birds. I cant' believe that a mockingbird would attack a red-shouldered hawk with such aggressiveness.

This is simply a sweet, sweet image, Mike! Beautifully detailed ducks set against a soft, dreamy sky...lovely!

What a wonderful, uplifting, and encouraging compliment, Steve! It sure means a lot to me. Thank you very much!

Thank you Mike.
I was surprised too.
They sure have tenacious aggressive determination.
It made the Hawk takeoff and then flew after it in hot pursuit.
Happy trails.

Not very happy-looking for a laughing gull! Nice sharp shot though.


Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.

European roller (Coracias garrulus). Difficult to photograph but such a great looking bird !

Vassilis these are both beautiful.
The Lapwing is much like ours, different colours and some features. Very interesting to see
The Roller is exceptional.

Bill this is so nice. Very colourful and fascinating bird
You've captured this beautifully.

Pair of Pintails

Mike I do love ducks in flight. We have some fine porcelain ones that were my mother's on our bedroom wall, in flight that I admire greatly.
But these take it to the next level with the colours and details and the composition.
Very nice indeed.
They would make a great picture hanging somewhere prominent :-)

Now THAT is a unique look at a Kingfisher :D

Happy trails.

I love how the hawk looks to be in full-on DILIGAF mode in that second shot
