Building a nest. I was surprised to see the nest as they usually seem to buried among the reeds and sedges.

Nicely done John, especially the songster, a tad bright maybe though you have lots of shadows too. but love that little tail sticking straight up, classic!

Thanks Bret. I had a tough time with that one. The old reeds are quite faded and bright but the bird was mostly shadowed. I intend to try and see if I can get it a little more easy on the eyes.

There will be days when you get the shot(s) you missed days, months or years before.

Great shots, wrens around here won't let you get close enough for good shots.

Thank you. It is weird how some birds let you get closer than others and just within the same species.
