Very pretty bird in equally nice, natural setting.

Lovely bird. Such clean clear colours.
Love the purposed, probing pose these birds put on.
Beautiful composition.

Wow.
That is stunning.
Every part of it. Colours, water, reflections...
Such a magnificent detailed plumage.
Very very nice.

Thank you very much, Avondale!.

Yet another Great-crested flycatcher

10 star Shooz. Your bokeh design to mirror the color of the belly is brilliant.

Amazing....

Thanks so much!

I kinda got distracted from the Chickadee. Would have been nice if we had a little more light.

A couple more for variety.

Hi Folks,
This Heron snagged a meal, not a snack.
Happy trails,
Paul

A few of us old Vets will be having a BBQ tomorrow and the weather is supposed to be clear and 92°. I think we have plenty of light to share. All you have to do is come by and grab a jar of it.

I think the hummers are confused and don't know what time of year it is around here.
