Rarely seen in my part of Maryland, this Marsh Wren appears to be almost as excited to be seen as we birders were to se it.

This capture deserves a big smile, Steve! What a cool looking shot! I'm lucky to see them fairly often. They are a kick to watch.

I love that distinctive call of theirs. This one was so insistent and loud beneath tall dead grass that a birder admonished several others waiting for the bird to surface for playing a recording. They told her it was the bird, and did she look perplexed!

That's a beauty! It's much better when they're all on one branch than on several.

Fantastic capture of this Tufted Titmouse, Bill! Tack sharp and great separation from the background.

Awesome Northern Cardinal capture, Bill! Very alluring shot!

Another beauty, Bill! You are definitely on a roll.

Strikingly attractive shot of this magnificent Golden Eagle, Vassilis!

You captured this Osprey so nicely, Kirk! Great portrait shot!

Gorgeous red eye, Lester! And the rest of the Black-necked Grebe close-up looks darn good! :-)

Thanks, Mike.

Burowing Owls and Owlets- The Owlet eyes have changed from brown to yellow. They leave the nest about 44 days after hatching and begin chasing live insects when they are 49 to 56 days old. It won't be long and these owlets will be on their own. Camera: Sony Alpha 1 March 17, 2023
