I wish I could have gotten more snow, but I was still happy with these.

Thanks everyone. Here's where I admit that I shot through glass. :). I keep it clean for this purpose.

Great shots Stefan!! We've got some in our back yard right now, but the little stinkers are staying hidden deep inside our pine tree and cedar trees. They sure are a vocal bunch though. I think they will be happy once I finish fixing the bird feeder. :)

The light on the bird in the first image is really nice. All 3 are well executed too.

It was a snowy overcast day, so the light was pretty easy to work with. Thanks for the compliments.
