Magnificent capture of the Grey Shrike-thrush, Richard! Nice sharp image, and I like the bird's pose.

Late afternoon

Vultures can be quite ugly IMO but I'm seeing them differently on here. This one is beautifully composed.
Really nice photo Mike

Very attractive photo. Love the colours and plumage details. The bird stands out very nicely from a beautiful background.

Steve this one is so beautifully composed.
Agree on others comments. The setting is beautiful and surrounds certainly isn't intrusive.
Lovely little bird.

Yellow Rumped Warbler

Beautifully captured.
Another shot of a lovely bird in a simple setting.
Interesting how its yellow rump shows even with its wings folded.
Striking birds

Very nice, the bird has a bit of a painted feel, I like that and I strive for that when I can.

Thank you K9Kirk. Yes, they're kind of pastel-like.

This beauty pops from the background, which itself so well complements the subject.

This is a beautiful shot Vassilis. Love it!

This Lewis's Woodpecker must have been blown in with one of the big storms that came thorough (from the west) last week.

I believe this fella represents the 1st documents sighting in our area. These are both heavy crops of images shot @ 1120mm, so IQ is subpar, but because of the uniqueness, I had to share.

Sadly, the paparazzi was out in force chasing it from tree to tree. I had to leave before saying something that may have gotten me in trouble.
