Good try Pelle. That angel actually looks interesting.

I took about 20 photos of hummers at the arboretum yesterday and they were all cruddy. I thought I posted one already. Hopefully, I didn't post it on the wrong thread! Maybe it didn't post because the thread was too long. Thanks for starting a new one Pelle!

Mrs. Ed, thanks for the effort on my oh-so-dark flycatcher!

It is so funny we named this little guy Ed last year. Then I met you here Ms. Ed and on another place I go I communicate a lot with a guy named Ed about daylilies!!!

I think Ed may have a female offspring...Edwina???? lol

I had a this one this morning...Man, I need bigger thumbnails!

OMG! Look at his stretched out legs! That was almost a great shot Nanny!

I had a male hummer for a while after the hurricane. In fact, I had a bunch of hummers. They all seem to be gone now.

I was so busy that I only took two photos and neither turned out. Here's a classic example of one of my hummer photo problems where the camera focused on tree behind him instead of on the hummer.

Here is the lovely behind of a redtailed hawk eating baby squirrels. I felt badly for the momma squirrel who was running all around chattering at the hawk, but really, there are too many squirrels especially now that we've lost half our trees to hurricane Ike.

Here is another one of the hawk that landed right above me on this squirrel's nest. With all the branches and the top of the tree gone, the nests are really exposed. This picture is almost good if only his face weren't covered by leaves!

I have that focus issue to...alot!!

Elphaba, your hawk pics are Cool!!!!!!!!!! That second one is a keeper anyway!

I think we had a hawk hanging out across the road for awhile around the time the squirrels were have their summer brood. Then the Barred Owls moved in for awhile...so I think we lost alot of baby squirrels here to them and some of the older ones too. All my originals are gone. But no shortage like you said.

I'll just say it's "artistic."

Whiteside County, IL(Zone 5a)

and this one cracked me up too. wish it was more in focus and I remembered to change the film speed!

I love the tail.

LOL! That's like the great hawk shot that I didn't get this morning b/c I went outside without my camera. Why do I keep doing that?

Here's my disappointment from yesterday. The robin is sitting on a rose that I'm probably going to get rid of b/c it's so out of control.
