jtee, beautiful images. If you don't mind, what did you use to capture those amazing photos?
Thanks for posting those.

Thank you for your kind words.
I usually get my bird images with the Canon7D attached to my Canon 500MM F4 IS USM ( version 1).

Baby Robins this morning 6-23-2012. Three babies already getting nice feathers. Canon 100mm at f/16.

Here are the nest and the eggs earlier. They built 4 ft above the ground on some panels I had stacked against the kids play house. A flicker nest on the rear has baby flickers in it as well.

First shot with my new 100-400 L lens. Not bad considering it was a quick shot through my sliding glass door and hand held. Lovin' the 5D Mark III. (400mm ISO 320 f5.6 1/320 sec. )

WOW! My picture can't stand up to the clarity of this group, but here it is anyway.
I need a bigger lens or visit a ZOO!
Shot with my trusty Rebel XS and the Canon 50-250mm f/4-5.6

apologize if this make you sick but it is really some effort - I spent 2 hours cooking it and it's yummy
