After a long winter here in Northern Illinois, I've started to get back to the area trails. Here are a few from the last week or so, I hope you enjoy them, and I always value any critique or suggestions that you may have.
Thanks in advance,
Ken

Fabulous series, Ken. The first three "portraits" and the waterlevel sandpiper shot really stand out.
The "frog-in-flight" shot deserves its own thread . . . lol.

I have a criticism-don't wait so long! Don't think I knew all those birds could be found in my home state. Really enjoyed them.
