Hello all, I haven't posted much in the last few weeks. I've been busy with other things. I was out in west Texas last week and captured a few shots. All these are pretty large crops.
Thanks for looking and more to come!

Brad, where in "west" Texas? Nice shots, too. I don't get to see scissor-tails that often since I moved out of SE Kansas.

Super shots Brad, that thrasher is very cool looking. First time I've seen a Juvie mockingbird, cute little guy. That flycatcher is quite unique, great looking bird.

Thanks Steve, The Thrashers are always there to photograph and have those cool looking orange eyes. Also the flycatchers are always a joy to photograph.

Thanks Judy, It's much appreciated.

Thank you Levina, I think this was an immature bird because of the unusually short tail. He only stayed for a minute and wouldn't turn around for me.
