Another shot of the Loggerhead Shrike perched in a tree and a Glossy Ibis. Don't see the latter much at my other sites where I shoot, but there's always a few around this park. Love the colors in their feathers. This one even has a greenish cast to his.

Beautiful shots, lovely birds...Don't think that I've ever seen a Glossy Ibis before, are they common in your area?

Thanks. Yes, they're around certain sites down here most of the time. I nearly always see them at Eagle Lakes.

Both are nice, Betty, but I like the first one especially. A great shot that with spot on exposure.

The shrike is a beautiful shot, Betty, in perfect light.

Beautiful Betty, love that Shrike! That is a mean looking little hook. Great shooting.
