I saw my first cormorant of the year today (too far away), and a bunch of turkey vultures…

Not much else besides a lot of poop machines…

And this cardinal… kinda looks like a coopers hawk with the bands on his tail feathers :D

Looks like you're going to have snow on the ground for a looong time.

I like the shot of the goose with outstretched wings - reminds me of how body-builders show off their back muscles.

Thanks Loupey, I still have about two and a half feet of snow in the yard. Last year we were still receiving measurable snow until about the middle of April, and snow flurries in May. It got up to 50F today... mother nature is only teasing me, lol.

nice shots ck.

what lens are you using anf are you doing any pp?

Thank you Terryger, I used my Canon 300mm f/4L IS and 1.4X TC for all of these. I usually only do a levels adjustment, crop if the image needs it, and sharpen for my p/p.
