Wow! One thing I've always wondered about birds: what happens to their bodies when they die? We see millions of birds flying around, and all of them die, but I can't remember seeing many corpses - except for road kill. Maybe there's a great bird graveyard where they all head when they feel the end growing near. : )
We have lots of eagles, hawks, and vultures that clean up the fallen.

Your cardinal shot is very eye-catching. A terrific composition IMO, and says so much about animals enduring winter.
We feed the birds and squirrels well. The birds in the neighborhood like to hang out at our house.....

We anxiously await the arrival of the snow geese every January. Wish I could attach a video so you could hear the really loud noise they make. Really a beautiful sight. And with the snow geese come the eagles. The last photo shows an eagle flying toward the snow geese. The eagles have a feast during this time.

We missed the heavy snow but got plenty of cold wind. Got a few winter pics.

These two pelicans live at a lake near us. They gave me a perfect pose when there last week.

These are photos of my 14 year old granddaughter who is fascinated with the Grinch this year, and the decorations in their yard. Funny thing happened one day we were out looking for eagles and driving along the top of a levy in Illinois with my granddaughter dressed as Grinch and her friend dressed as an Elf riding in the back seat. A cop came up behind us and stopped us. He asked what we were doing up on the levy road. Told him we were looking for eagles. He looked in the back seat and said, well we have a situation going on and the car fits the description of yours, but I can see you are definitely not who we are looking for... But told us to please get off the levy road quickly. Bet he had a lot of fun telling everyone he stopped the Grinch.

This is my version. It's the best I could do with a jpeg and an unsharp image. Hope it helps a little.
Very much better. Thank you. I tried to get her to choose the color photo but she insists on the black and white. It was not one of my best photos for sure.

Can anyone out there in Hedgehog land help this photo with your awesome equipment and knowledge. Posting 3 versions. Someone wants a 14x16 print of this for Christmas but not real happy with how it looks. Wish they had chosen a sharper photo from my collection. Help if you can....please.

I also just recently learned that the monarchs with the two spots on their lower wings- like your fine image- are the males. The females do not have the spots
I did not know that... Thanks.

No I was corrected on that one..... Learned something.
