Very sharp, striking photo of the warbling vireo, Steve! Definitely a lifelike image.

Thank you, Mike!

Great shot of the ladder-backed woodpecker, Bill. They are extremely similar to the Nuttall's woodpeckers in my area.

Many thanks, Rob. Much appreciated.

What a gorgeous shot of the beautiful bee-eater, Vassilis! Incredibly appealing.

Beautiful portrait shot of the hen mallard, fotoi! Terrific color.

Beautifully composed shot of the lesser goldfinch, Tom!

You were spot on with this beautiful capture, Dave!

Superb capture, Brian! Very attractive!

Terrific low angle shot, Jan! It looks like this pied avocet is having quite a tug of war with a stubborn worm.:-)

Very sharp, striking photo of the warbling vireo, Steve! Definitely a lifelike image.

Thank you Mike

I don't get many birds anymore, but sat out on the front porch this evening got these in the light of the setting sun. Had to EV+2, so the sky is really washed out. First ever photo of an Indigo Bunting.

At my mother in laws yesterday and she has some lovely bird life in her garden. New Zealand Piwakawaka (Fantail) and a Kingfisher feasting on a worm

Fantails are a very small bird and super fast. I was stoked to get close enough with the 200-600 and get these

Grey Butcherbird at Litchfield National Park.

This is a lovely image, Pippan. I love the mood of the picture, background bokeh it all sort of meshes in well with the subject. Thew bird seems to have a thoughtful expression.

Thank you Neal, the bird did look like it was just sitting, pondering life (or thinking of its next meal :-)).


Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.

Thats a nice one Paul. Should send that parakeet down to Sydney, been waiting over 5 weeks for the roof repairer to fix some issues!
