Terrific Bald Eagle captures, Maureen!

Nice shot of the Lesser Black-backed Gull, Ray! I like seeing some of the Gull's environment.

Beautiful drake Mallard portrait shot, fotoi!

Your Brown Goose is a very attractive looking bird, Michael. Great shot! I tried to look this this goose up on Google, but couldn't find any information on it.

Two excellent Barn Swallow shots, Cap'n!

This shot of the American white ibis is really a beauty, Kirk! I like the breaking wave...it adds appeal in my opinion.

Beautiful Meadowlark shot, Joe! I haven't had a single shot at one, so far this year. They are one of my favorite subjects.

Terrific Eagle shot, Jimmy! I love the setting.

What a unique, well timed shot of the Burrowing Owl, Paul. I wonder what this guy is looking at?

Thank you Mike

I see, I'm not familiar with that bird. They sure are pretty, though.

They normally come through during migration periods but apparently a few stay over.

What a beauty, Bill! I'll bet you never get tired of seeing gorgeous blue Northern Parula's. Stunning capture!

Thanks Mike. I called it a brown goose as I didn’t know what it actually was.

I'd be interested in finding out what your bird is. Perhaps someone on the forums can help us out on that.

I finally got a couple half decent portraits of these birds.

Belted Kingfisher..the ones in my area are so skittish it's difficult to get close

Eastern Meadowlark...it's like whack-a-mole to catch them when they pop up in the open for a few seconds

You certainly nailed this Belted Kingfisher, which I too find extremely skittish, Steve! Also, your "whack-a-mole" analogy for nailing Meadowlarks is spot on.:-) You captured this Meadowlark very nicely! I Love the low camera angle and the great background.
