These are even better than the posted in BIF! I actually like all five (5 =incl. BIF!).
BTW: I noticed in your photos of the Owls (second series) that you already have 3 at once (second photo, I didn't see the third bird before
)! Well, now for a logarithmic curve you need... WHAT?!!!Good luck with this but on the other hand you have the momentum on your side! Now or never!

Yes, that 3rd owl was sneaky, huh! LOLBTW: I noticed in your photos of the Owls (second series) that you already have 3 at once (second photo, I didn't see the third bird before

We'll see how the logarithmic curve goes, I may have reached the max

I'm happy for you that you could get into that position. Great chance, great pics.
I can remember that I once saw a golden eagle in the Austrian alps when I was skiing there. It was sitting on a stone, maybe fifty meters away, and still I thought, "What a big bird!"
But I didn't have a camera with me :/

Thanks Click! I wish I can post more rare birds. On other hand The Ring-necked Duck and the Semipalmated Plover were way more than I expected for this month!

So some of you have gotten this far.
I'm 65. Married 41 years. Meeting my wife is the best thing that ever happened to me...
So tell me, fellow CR readers: what is better...Morning Photons or Morning...?

On a more serious note (I think!?), a few weeks ago I posted a link to sad stories that supplied details of literally hundreds of songbirds coming to an untimely end in Chicago IL...they struck windows facing Lake Michigan on a portion of McCormick Place.
Here is a link to some good news on that general topic...mostly from Evanston IL (on the campus of Northwestern University).

It’s Not That Hard to Stop Birds From Crashing Into Windows
Chicago’s glass skyscrapers are a menace for birds. They don’t have to be.

Sunrises make me want to retire and experience the fresh air and beautiful morning light instead of helping a company owner make even more money.
Re-reading this post makes me want to reduce my run-on sentences.

These are nice! I like all three birds - especially because I haven't seen any of them alive! As a photo my favorite is the last one - may be the pose of the bird, may be that green "Aurora" coming from it's head
?!
