Outstanding mockingbird shot, Bill. The bird is very sharp and it stands out so nicely.

Great shot, Tom. I wish you could send some these birds over my way. I just don't see them anymore. I wonder if their numbers are dwindling out here in the central San Joaquin Valley?

Smashing shot, Shalu...quite humerus. This heron has obviously been using a neck stretcher. They'll do that so they can reach out further in the water for fish.

That would be very nice Richard. However, I was unaware of your ability to speak their language.
