All are good in this set, but the titmouse and the 3rd bluebird shot really stand out.

Another excellent series, Kenn and Temple. It's always such a pleasure to watch your work. I was trying to pick a favourite, but that's sheer impossible. Although I am always partial to your Bluebirds... :)

Thanks everyone,

We always appreciate your encouraging comments.

Diane - The shots in this set were taken with our SX30 and S5-IS.

And btw, we're happy to report that we still have 10 Bluebirds here, (Missy, Ben, and 8 of their fledglings from this past nesting season). We expect some of the young ones to move on soon, but we hope at least a few will stay the winter with their parents.

Your Bluebirds always steal the show Kenn, but that titmouse & Downy add exclamation points to this series... wonderful clarity.
