Beautiful shots everyone!
Very jealous of the titmouse at your feeders! Nice shots Pelle and Granny!
Also, totally jealous of the Spotted Towhee Duc. That's one I'm really trying hard to see. Call sounds like the beginning of Beethoven's 5th, so I'm listening for that all the time! Love the variety that you get and am amazed that all your shots are so perfect!
Love the Pileateds Nanny. I would love to have a racoon in the yard! Highly unlikely for me, but glad you're enjoying all your great wildlife.
Lily, you've got some cuties.
Great Flicker shots too everyone. Wish they'd come to my feeders.

This series is called "almost got it." Lighting was not perfect and so neither are the pics, but the subjects wowed me! A White-tailed Kite, an Osprey eating a fish that was still wiggling, and a mystery hawk that's probably just a dark red-tail although white bill surprised me.
