Haven't posted here in a long time but been following weekly. Great shots everyone! I didn't scroll through all 1074 pages but I didn't see any Wood Ducks, so here are a few for the collection.

Nice shots of this beautiful Duck, Skatol! I especially like the first and third - the expression change from frindly to angry to chase away competitors ...

And the Rudy Turnstone - one old in non-breeding and two from today in breeding plumage.

Nice to see these birds in their breeding plumage; what a change with their regular non-breeding outfit! I know their very similar Atlantic cousins well enough but haven't seen those (yet) in breeding plumage... Nice shots ISv, v. well done!

WOW, when I don't get notified many shots get posted and so I'll cop out and sayV nice to all of them.

Now a while back Eagles were being posted and I felt left out so here's mine. It's down the road to the edge of town at Old Masset where a carver does his magic.

Even those fly off when I try for a shot!

Excellent head shot! What lens did you use?

 

[Jack Douglas]

chrysoberyl, we're all frustrated with that scenario. Perhaps we could reassure them on Twitter.

Nice DPC.

Ha ha, but I prefer to tweet in person. That way, some birds pause to give me strange looks as I mangle their language, providing an opportunity to get a shot.
