What a beautiful series of shots, very well done! The Scarlet Tanager stands out to me, one showed up here outside Halifax and caused quite a stir as they're so rare here.

Simply fabulous collection of wonderful shots.

At least you have better weather, we are back to autumn in the UK, wind, rain and 5C when I left for work this morning.
