Mix of little guys

No exciting eagles, just a mix of little ones from Northern Nevada.

Thanks for looking,

They are all very nice, but the last one strikes me as being the best. Wonderful "pose" and background. Very nice lighting as well. Looks like your were on your belly for some of these.

I love viewing your little birds, they are always perfect. The exposure, comp. and texture is dead on. They, as the eagles, are what makes the cycle go round and round. Thank you for sharing.

They might be little but, still good to look at.

I love those little ones you find and "capture" so well!

That last one, you used it as an example of what one should do with the light, didn't you? I think I remember it...........you showed Snappy.

Love them all,

ginger

Another stunning series Steve. I especially like the first and last!

Thusie

The rail is super, the light, everything. Finchets are one of my favorite up close and personal birds, so charming. Just great shots all

Outstanding series Steve. Everyone is just about perfect.

Thank you Thomas, I appreciate your comments. Yep I was lying prone for several of these. I feel they look much better from that level perspective.

Thank you Mike. I've typed in several smart *ss comments on that last remark, but I probably should refrain from mentioning them in this family forum.

Thanks Jeff, I agree that the little ones can be challenging, harder to get close to as well as they move so darn fast sometimes

Thank you Ginger, you've got a good memory. I did use that bird as an example of front lighting but hadn't had a chance to post it on it's own.
