    Nice pics. I dont think the blurred beak hurts it, Its skeery :yikes .

    The ostrich (sp?) is cool too, I am only likely to get that shot in a zoo.

    Love those birds
    Greaper, the cedar waxwings are great. Very nice shots. I love the first one with that berry just rolling on his tongue. Do you use a 200 or 300 zoom to get these? I can never get birds.

    I use a 170 - 500mm Sigma zoom. It's not bad for a less expensive lens (relative). It's the best i can afford.

    Interesting bird jwear, I tried to look it up but couldn't find it. The pic has some things goin for it. It shows the bird in it's environment which is IMHO always better than on a feeder.

    It's a great start... I would love to see more pics of this bird.

    Thanks for sharing it.
