Daily Pics. Vol 50

NCIS? CSI? I thought we weren't abbreviating anymore :)

Thanks for the nice welcome everyone. I was hoping, to take picture at my Son's place, but they cut all the trees on the lots behind his place, for housing. Bummer :(
We had seen Pheasant and deer there in the past. I've seen Mallards flying overhead (at least I think they were), but couldn't stop for picture, stuck in traffic.The little Redpolls are flocking again today, It's snowing here, and the wind wants to pick up. This is one pic of the flock.

Wow thats quite a gang burn!

I've had a number of partially albino House Finch come around but this one had the most on her head area that I've seen.

LOL, you guys crack me up.

Woodpecker and snow

Neat Pelle, first time I see one.
Here are some more today, feeding on the ground. storm always brings them to the feeders.

I guess we would need some snow to get the Redpolls here. I have never seen one.

These Lesser Goldfinch are checking out the strange light in the sky.

Good shot of another bird we don't see here.

Here's a pair of collared doves on the telephone wire. They're just a bit lighter colored than my white-winged dove and they have a small black ring (collar) on the back of their neck.

I finally got a few decent pics of an American Kestrel. Here's one of them.

Another photo of the Kestrel.

I was so excited to see this little guy ... a burrowing owl ... out in broad daylight. My camera makes a little chirping sound as it autofocuses; and that really got his attention.

Neat pics. We have a few collared Doves but I have never gotten a picture of one.

Those Kestrels always stay so high and are so small. Very difficult to photograph. Good work!

Great job Jane! Beautiful photos!

That Burrowing Owl is my favorite!

***Linthicum will be starting the New Daily Pics thread soon.***

Great pics everyone!

Love seeing them!

LOL Resin!

As a courtesy, I left that "quack" to you bro Resin, !rofl!
& thanks, I have wondered what these ducks were for a while now. Could Gadwall have anything to do with their breeding? Didn't find any farm ducks in my books, wonder why they aren't in there.

No Gadwall in there that I can see!

Farm ducks aren't in bird books, any more than poodles are in books about wolves ;-)

Tho' having said that, take a look at page 89 in Sibley's Bird Guide, there's some of the numerous domesticated variants shown there

Ahhh thxs again Resin, will go check it!

Hi! This is my first time posting here. I have tons of bird pics I have taken.
