I really like the pose there, Mike, and the light is very nice. Was that dusk or dawn?

Three very nice shots! #1 is my favorite.

Nice set, Bill. The first shot is my favorite.

This shot is just for fun because it's oof. It's just a record shot of two gulls fighting for the prize and displaying their aerobatic airbrakes which I thought may strike some as interesting.

Thanks, Ken ~~

It is indeed a handsome bird, a rare sight in my neck of the woods. Not as easy for the Eye-AF to work as its closely resembling female Common Grackle, but both are quite photogenic....

Action shots are always interesting, and this is a nice one.

I may be wrong, but I think it's a type of curlew

Correct, and nicely photographed. The large size and long, downward curved bill are the keys. This particular curlew is called a WhimbrelI, but I don't know why "curlew" isn't part of the name. You've probably got Long-billed Curlews around somewhere as well.

Okay, I finally nabbed a decent shot of a Yellow Warbler. My last photo I submitted last week was admittedly lackluster, so hopefully this makes up for it!
