Re: Ornithology (Bird) Thread
Beautiful shots doglegg, absolute calendar shots, magazine covers. Right on. Beautiful birds too.


Beauties, you have some great birds. Love the seventh pic down with that elegant blue belly. Sweet pics too. Love the little chirps and clicks they make.
Saw some Crows harassing a Hawk on a walking trail near the cemetery. Snapped a couple pics.

Iman your photo reminded me; the first hawk I ever saw, a Broad-Winged, was brought to my attention by hysterical Blue Jays.
