    Eastern Bluebird
    Well i was finally able to get in closer to these Bluebirds , the reason being that they have taken over a Swallow`s bird house on a fence post. So i just had to sit there for a half hour and they started coming around.

    Very nice! I like them all. I'm still hoping for BB in one of my boxes. There is a new nest in one, but I'm betting it's house sparrows again...

    Thanks guys number one was a bonus for me , i had just finished a photo of the male with the green insect in its mouth and was now focusing on the female when the male arrived for a food transfer for the female to take back to the nest . Thanks for taking the time for a looksee :)

    Good Knight! These are exceptional!

    Love the first one too. But the rustic birdhouse in #3 is excellent as well.

    It's very evident that your patience paid off. I like them all. Congrats on the POTW, whatever that is. I assume it means photo of the week? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    That's what it means, Mike. Each of the major forums gets to select their own POTW. Not intended to be a "contest" but more as a recognition for hard work and perserverence. Paulnj and I usually select the POTW based on technical execution, artistic merit (whatever that means :p ), subject difficulty, and/or just plain "wow" factor.

    Wow, most wonderful! I'm now encouraged to hike back up a hill in back of where I live and visit a bird house where I believe the little beauties are living. Photos like that are soooo inspiting in so many ways....Dale
