Great shot with feather details. Very hard to do.

Thank you both! :-)

This is Pete. Pete is fearless and buzzes anything that comes near "his" feeder, so I had to hide behind the Monarda to get these. I had to crop a little more than I wanted to keep the feeder out of the photo.

Judy...Those two hummingbird images are really steller shots. They are posed beautifully, and both are tack sharp.

Beautiful.
As a kid I was always fascinated by Puffins. Only in books though.
Still find them so.

That's an A-number-1 shot right there, Jim. I love the feather touch. It add a little humor, and make the shot even more charming.

Outstanding image Mike, they don’t get better than this.

Wallace, it's so nice of you to say that. I really appreciate the generous compliment.

Great close-up shot, Paul. We have a lot of Sandhills out here, but it's been tough to get close to them, at least for me it has.

Thanks Mike.
They're awesome, peaceful creatures.
Happy trails,
Paul
