DAILY PICS VOL. 264

I love the muted shades on this House finch

Love those beach pics.
Well I'm taking advantage of it. I'm now closing my eyes and pretending, I'm at the beach, I have some warm sand between my toes, and the sun is wrapping me up with warmth. The ocean mist on my face, is very soothing and refreshing. Oh what a feeling. :))

Love all your contributions! It's so nice to see what others do in their areas.

Someone mentioned poofed up birds because of the cold. Take a look at this Red-breasted Sapsucker! It's not a timid bird at all, as long as I don't move suddenly. Must be the same one that hung out here last year.

The Spotted Towhee enjoying the sunlight.

That's a lovely shot of the Towhee, tiger.

Great shots everyone!

Claudcat, Love your Ring-billed Gull, Scrub Jay, Dark-eyed Junco and others!

Burn, Those Pheasants are gorgeous!

Margaret, Beautiful scene! Thanks a lot! ;-)

Tiger, Very nice pics of the Red-breasted Sapsucker and Towhee!

Good morning everyone, from the cold and snowy midwest.

My turn to start the next thread and I'll be leaving for the day soon, so I'm starting early.

c'mon over and continue the fun:

I just went through this entire thread. Incredible photos from one and all. So many birds that I never see here in Southeast Texas. There are too many awesome shots to comment on each one. I really enjoyed seeing the variety of birds.

Dave, I've always enjoyed your bluebird photos, but these new ones.... Man oh Man, I just have to tell you that it's like seeing them in HD!!! The colors are so much more brilliant.... almost magnified!

I can't wait to see more of everyone's birds. The differences in climates make for some very interesting shots. I love seeing the birds all poofed up. Makes me want to send out little bird sweaters to you folks up North.
