    Great shooting. I really like the phoebe and Cooper's hawk. That other bird looks like it could be a sparrow of some type. I've given up on identifying them because there are so many different variations!

    Great shots, Jeff!!! clap.gifclap

    The clarity in the killdeer is great, but gotta agree the bluebird (yeah, male) and coopers steal the show.

    Good to see you out chasing the birds again. We're going to have to do that SS owl hunt soon.
