AWFUL PICS Vol. 7

Here's that Kingfisher again. I took shot after shot and they were all blurry! :[
But this one I just had to post because he just seem to be saying "Take a shot of THIS, why dontcha!"

They do just seem to taunt you sometimes, I swear!!!

Thanks for the laughs, Everyone. Oh, that poor Red-bellied Woodpecker of yours, Loves Great Danes! Do you suppose Dirt's Hawk said, "Off with your head!"?
LOL

LOL WB!!

Crazy~ I had a few Kingfishers exactly like yours..seems there always on the wrong side of the stream for me.

Seems like I have more bad than good these days!

That one is fine except for the tail. I would love to see a Kingfisher someday.

I love how the wren's tail is in motion like that! Kingfishers are just too cool.

This picture wouldn't be too horrible if I had actually gotten the Little Blue Herons in the picture.

have not been here to see your posts since the... lol.... bird whisperer shot on the 16th.... To answer your ?s, wbbirdwoman, yes, that is PB Delux on the spoon... there is usually a feeder at that window, so they come in naturally.... but when it is empty, with just a few momets of patience, you can bring then in with a spoonful of food... here is a shot of my hand... with a nuthatch attached.... my son had the camera this time!

ok, folks, there is a hunter in my midst... I've seen this guy luking in the trees, but never this brazen... This Sharp-shinned hawk seems to think my bird feeders are a buffet!!!! Fly away my feathered friends!!!!! I got within 7 feet of him and got this shot.... no almost about it!!! have a great day, all!!!!

Wow two great shots MG!

your pictures are great, if you want a winner here is my contribution....

I just happen to be walking by the back window saw this hawk, ran for the camera so excited and ran back and didn't take the time to set the picture just started snapping through the window....LOL

I love it when the birds come.

Still a cool pic Elphaba!

maine, Love the Nuthatch! The Hawks does know that is his buffet; I'm surprised he let you get so close.

Hi Janet, That is a good (bad) pic. I've done that before many times usually not checking camera settings.

I was in the right place at the right time to get THE perfect shot of a Hummer feeding and when I came inside to post it....

LOL, yes I know that one well! I walk back outside after posting and a wonderful bird is just taking off!

Great awful pic meadowyck!!

LOL, bjf!

Alright, for an aweful shot; pretty cherry (Yoshino cherry), but can't make out what the pretty bird is!!!

ummm I can't find a bird in that photo! It's another "where's waldo"

Good morning Birder Friends! Thanks for the smiles. One of the first things that I do in the morning is to log onto this site and laugh at your comments. Here is an awful shot in EVERY way: taken at Peaks of Otter Lodge in Bedford, Virginia. I'm glad that our two day stay there was better than this pic of "The Sentry." Blessings to all of you today.
Sharon

Okay, another attempt at Waldo's where about. lol, Mrs_ed. Sharon, you do have a blessed day yourself.

LOL, center right is where he is?

Thanks, Lily. Oh, I would have guessed that he's that little brown speck of fluff in the lower left of the photo. This is fun. We should do this more often. LOL

I agree! Can't say I will be very good at it with my tired old eyes but I do like a challenge. :-)

Okay, Waldo was on the off right center of the pix. lol. Okay, my eye sight isn't 20/20 either, so here is another pix hopefully we don't have to strain our eyes so hard, yours and mine, Pelle. lol.

I can see! 'Em are Geese, right? LOL I'm going to get nothing done unless I "swim" outta here. Later!

I thought it was just me not seeing anything!! LOL

LOL, Sharon & Nan, me too, gotta get some laundry goin' lol. Those are Pekin ducks -- I think. Though Canadian Geese do visit us here from time to time.

Oooh I can't help it, but who is this elusive one?

I can't see it real well (lol) but maybe male House Finch?

Pelle, thanks. I think that it's! House finches, does that explain why they love to sneak into my house? Well I've a small greenhouse to the side of the garage which these little guys/gals are often found and get chased back outside. lol.

They are pretty brave.

Here is an American Goldfinch jumping off the shepheards hook down towards the feeder.

Watch out! That first step is a doozy!!

Pelletory:

That shot should have been up in the section where they ask for captions...

The main thing I'm glad is the bird didn't decide to life his tail feather and end up mooning you while you were trying to get its pictures.....rofl.....

Your right Meadow!
Here is a bad shot of a hawk (probably Coopers) who had just left after barreling through the yard.

Piece of a Tufted Titmouse!

I don't know who this is, all I know it's a bad picture! :((

Fairly sure it's a Northern Mockingbird

Resin

Thanks Resin.

Common Grackle :-)

Good morning Fellow Birders! Pellatory, it looks like your Grackle has the same problem as Loves Great Danes' Red-bellied Woodpecker. LOL A great day is wished for all of you.

A beautiful day wish is upon you too Sharon. Happy spring day everyone, and a good productive day with lot and lot of 'aweful pics' day to all my friendly birders here. :-)
