I'm new here. Mostly a bird guy, here is some of my stuff from the last six months or so:

Piping Plover, Scarborough, ME:
070205.jpg

Common Grackle, N. Smithfield, RI:
082805.jpg

Double Crested Cormorant, Providence, RI:
111305.jpg

Northern Mockingbird, Middletown, RI:
011206.jpg

and American Coot, E. Providence, RI:
011606.jpg

Birds of prey are my usual fare, but I just went through the last few decent shots that I had already put onine. See you around.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Nice series Chris. While most people like the Raptor shots I enjoy taking and seeing all birds. Welcome to Dgrin. wave.gif

    All are really nice shots but I especially like the light on the piping plover.

    Nice Shots
    Nice shots chris, one of the most valuable lessons you can learn is the rule of thirds, work on getting your shots out of the center of the picture.

    I like all the birds too, the little guys are the most challenging for me, Nice and clear well exposed thumb.gif
