EveryMilesAMemory wrote in post #13828314 Nice stuff Stan, I'll have to see if I can spot any with these markings around our area! They look really cool! Thanks, Pat. Lots of the males here seem to have the color, maybe yours will. I've been thinking I need to get up your way soon, if things settle down here a bit. Grizz wrote in post #13828325 Really nice ones Stan. I love these birds but we don't get them up here. Thanks for sharing them. Thanks, Craig. They seem to be mostly a Southern bird. I never saw them when I was in North Florida.

I never knew they got that colorful I guess because the only ones I've ever seen have been so far away. Nice images, especially the 2nd. Thanks much, Steve. They are plentiful here. It's not unusual to see a dozen or more in a small pond. Stan (See my gallery at http://www.pbase.com/sparker1
