Recent visitors to my backyard feeders. There must be a pair building a nest nearby because this one was pretty aggresive. DUCK!! :)

Nice detail and sharp but maybe a shade too much contrast.

I love shooting this species. The pair we have here has gotten semi-docile with us, but they're very territorial with other birds and animals in the area. Nice work!

Excellent...if you back pedal a bit on the PP, they might even look better.;)

Thanks for the comments. I agree after viewing them on my desktop puter they were a little much. I tried the back pedal and hope these are a little better. :) All comments are appreciated.

Hard bird to capture (for me at least). Great job!
