Nice shots! I especially like the 4th one and the one with the bluebird. Lovely!

Thank you all for looking, they are beautiful little birds. They made up for the lousy eagle activity. Dad brought some grass to the nest and came right up from behind the tree,I couldn't get any good angles (mom was on an egg or two)

I like the first three. Nice shots.

I found a web sit today after freezing my butt off trying to do a little shooting. Trying to get ready for some warmer days and the return of the birds. I have only looked it over a bit but you might find it interesting.

The Eagle shot is still cool. It sucks to get that close and not have a clear shot though.

Beautiful!

Beautiful birds. I can't wait until they return to my area. They pass through, but don't stay long.

Good stuff!
