    Love all of them. The reddish back ground makes the birds really standout.

    #9 is awesome made me chuckle

    #9 is hilarious. several reasonably dignified shots of what appears to be a very serious bird giving you the stink eye and then that. Great stuff. I also like #10 a lot.

    Thanks everyone Glad to see I'm not the only one who appreciates #9.

    Terry, I think this was late January... 22 maybe? Chicago Botanic Gardens. There was a huge flock of waxwings and robins together feeding on the crabapple trees on Evening Island.

    One of my favorite birds... I've only seen them once in my area.
    The first step is BEING THERE to take it...

    Great images CaraRose, thanks for sharing. We don't often see too many of these in my part of the Great White North (actually White and Freezing Cold, North the last few days).

    Cheers,
