Great capture, Bill! Certainly a tasty looking meal. :p


Very nice capture of this big fellow, PineholeR5! He's definitely giving you a thorough looking over.


Thanks Mike.

Nice sharp image, Canonuser! The two little purple flowers give this shot an added touch.

Thank you.

This Glossy Ibis, which took a left turn inland when it should have made a right turn to the coast, is an unusual, but very welcome visitor judging by all the attention it's getting from birders.

Very nice shots of this rare visitor, Steve!

Thanks, Mike! It usually hangs about 400-500' into the marsh, but this time was roughly 175-200'. I keep going back hoping it'll come to ~50'.....oh well, it keeps me busy! ;-)a

Beautifully composed, sharp image of this little darling, Richard. The shot has such a 3D look to it, due to the excellent buttery background.

Many thanks Mike. Your generous comments are a real encouragement.

I was on the phone at the time and a number of them along with a few Thornbills turned up and I grabbed my camera and proceeded one handed. Was surprised how they turned out
