Post your Bird Portraits

Still a few of these guys around in Indiana, probably transients heading south.

Love these shots of the warblers. The Black and White is easy to ID. Guessing the other is a Black-throated Green. Warblers down here are pretty much a no-show so far.

Red Necked Phalarope

Hello Richard, if a beautiful bird that belongs to the family of plovers.
The name of the bird is Southern Lapwing (Vanellus Chilensis)

Greetings from Chile

Alex

They breed here Doc.. both are here all year except the coldest months. I was shooting the eagle and a cloud of warblers flew in around me.. you could waste an entire camera shooting the black and white.

Osprey, with eyeball snack

Brutal!

Wonderful shot, Shalu. I know we seem to always try to equate our human emotions to birds and other animals (anthropomorphism), but your photos of these show us how caring these Clark's grebes are. I've sure enjoyed you photos of them, as I'm sure many others here have.

Thank you very much for your kind compliments as always, Mike!

You surely do these birds the justice they deserve.
I'd imagine these need endurance, patience, to capture these moments.
You're building up a magnificent collection.
Lovely.

Thank you so much, Richard! It is a lot of fun watching these birds even when I am not pressing the shutter button.

Another western grebe pair rushing shot. I want to get some Clark's grebe rushing shots, but there are far more westerns than Clark's here.
