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!

Excellent detail and I love how its colors are echoed by the background branches and the growth (Fungi?) on the main branch

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.

Kirk, never even begin to apologize for a terrific shot like this. I for one really enjoy it, and think it's a great shot of aerial display between these two birds.

Absolutely love these two shots of the Yellow Warbler, Matt! I'd rate your first shot as absolutely spectacular. It definitely belongs in a frame, and hung on the wall at a prominent location.

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

Thanks so much, Kirk! I really appreciate your compliment. The shot was taken late afternoon, around 5 o'clock.

Three great captures! Never heard of a laughing dove.

Thank you, sogs! Laughing dove is a common resident of southern areas. I never heard it laugh, though. :)

Your three bird series is very nicely done, Cog! I kinda favor the Laughing Dove on a rope.

Thank you, Mike! I like it, too.
