Tack sharp BG! B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!

Excellent work you keep getting better and better!!

You have natural talent with how you portray those birds.

Thanks so much Mark.

I'm actually really proud of these two shots because neither are that easy to photograph and although I have plenty of Anna's in my yard they rarely seek out such perfect perches and the nuthatch is an infrequent visitor.

Love the Anna's Mel: really spectacular!

Went for a walk along the dyke this morning as it was so beautiful. As always there were many, many herons: got this unusual-looking shot straight out of the camera (other than cropping):

Very artistic pose there Alwyn! I dig the golden light!

Gorgeous shots BG! Tack sharp details and beautiful light. The look of the red feathers on the juveniles is so neat.
