Hi all,

We've just begun posting shots to our new year 2011 gallery [Vol-5], and it just seems amazing to me that we are beginning a 5th year shooting our beloved backyard birds.

As usual, the weather is cold, the lighting often poor, and shivering hands don't produce the steadiest shots. But here are a few of our first captures of the new season.

We always hope our first shots of any new year will not be our best shots of the year. And we always hope you will enjoy them anyway.
