Gorgeous set of images. I love the level of detail you present with your bird photography. Far beyond my efforts for birding.

Thanks Alan. For detail you just have to be really sneaky and get as close as possible and take a zillion images!

These are so awesome Michael! Love this series. I had captured a bunch of bird shots at a lake the other day while my grandsons had soccer practice. And I thought they looked awesome, but now that I see yours, I see mine aren't so awesome, I like them still, but I had to take them down a peg now as yours really are awesome.

My favorites are the Tree Swallow, Wilson's Warbler and the Belted Kingfisher.

you are way too kind. There are no bad bird pictures because the fact that you took them means that you saw the bird and as long as you can remember that time and place and at least can ID the bird, you have done what you need to do!

thanks

Mike

P.S. I want some night sky shots like yours!!!!

I didn’t mean to infer that your pictures were “bad”. My intent was that I think that it is great that you are taking pictures of birds!!
