    Just some freakin' birds...

    I can play too....;)


    Some are new, some not so new, and some just old. I shot my first hummingbird this morning! A Ruby throated!







    My first ever picture of a humming bird taken this morning!

    Hi Almo,

    All very nice -- especially the fist one. It's a very nice image of something we don't see/register when a bird is just about to land.

    Cheers,
