Wow...very cool looking shot of this spotted towhee, Ken! I really like these guys. They are quite pretty looking.

Thanks Mike. I like them too and it's great when they cooperate.

Two excellent captures of the Spanish Sparrow, Cog! Your Spanish Sparrow looks very much like our house sparrow. Our House Sparrow, comes from Europe. It is one of the most well-established invasive species that we have here in the US.

Thanks, Mike! Right, house sparrow is basically everywhere now. Spanish sparrow is a much more restricted species. It lives in Southerns Europe, North Africa and Middle East.

Little Egret (Egretta garzetta nigripes (external link)) in breeding flush. Note the reddish lores, long plumes from the back of its head, and streaming plumes from its breast and rump. Incidentally, the slightly out-of-focus young Pied Heron is in transition from white-headed juvenile (like the very out-of-focus bird further back) to dark grey-headed adult plumage.

Beautiful drake mallard capture, Jimmy! I like the water dribble off the end of his bill.:-)

Outstanding female cardinal shot, Tom! The sharpness and lighting are super! Nice setting.

Super nice shot of this Northern cardinal, Bill! Cool looking setting.

Crack'in shot of the Dunnock, Mark! Very appealing image.

What a beautiful, colorful shot of the Blue Jay, Steve! This image is pinpoint sharp, and very attractive.

Thank you Mike
