Tom...this is really a gorgeous shot! The dove is sharp and beautiful, plus his perch is so attractive. The lovely blurred background definitely makes this shot pop!

You've got yourself some wonderful subjects with the whistling ducks Paul. These two are such captivating shots, and so well photographed. I've really enjoyed all the images you have posed of the recent Black-Bellied Whistling Ducks.

Excellent two shot action series, Mark! It's hard to believe that a cormorant can swallow a trout that large. At least he won't have to eat for awhile.:-)

Thanks- but he went right back to work! (and I didn't even know there were still some stocked trout in that bass pond)

Magnificent
Whilst I love my wrens I really admire ducks and their refinery.
Such beautiful colours and detail in this Mike
I expect you'd feel like getting into that water given what we hear of your temperatures. If there's water to find :-(
