Been having some fun here shooting. I need to do some PP on the sticks and such. But having more fun just photographing. So this is just what comes out of the camera with basic sharpening. Got to where I am using fill flash for almost every shot. So all with fill except the BIF.

If I had that range of cooperative birds in my area I wouldn't spend as much time at the computer. Your use of fill is perfect,... in my opinion.

Your variety of birds seems never ending... excellent shots Gary... what species of woodpecker is that? Must be a mystery as to what flies in next ;)

Thnk's guys and gals... The woodpecker is a Greater Flameback. I am retired so the variety is just because I am out everyday. When I first retired I just sat around, Now this keeps me busy and enjoyable to me.
Have a great day, Gary

That's a beautiful set Gary,

Good shots all and super variety. And since nobody asked (and nobody said...) What's that lovely species in the first 3 shots?

A real pleasure to view these,
