    Saturday morning feathered friends

    Just a couple I shot off this morning. "Rocky" the Canada Goose and "Loud Mouth Louie" the Red Winged Black Bird.

    Re: Saturday morning feathered friends

    Good afternoon, wish I had been with you this morning.
    The red wings are my favorites in this group.
    Now see if you can find me a "nest" shot.
    Plant a tree, help it grow. Children need something to climb.
    Critique any picture; any where; any time.

    The RWBB's are exceptional.

    Do RWBB's nest on the ground or in trees?

    Somethings going on with Goose shot 2.
    If I stare at the goose the rocks hypnotizes (sp?) me. Maybe a little gaussian blur to increase bokeh?

    RWBB's generally build their nests in reeds or cattails.

    Great shots, Sartech!
