I like the pheasant shots. Don't see them in photos that much or live for the matter. Well done!
Enjoyed your series very much. Do I detect some Topaz Simplify on the flowers? Your skipper butterfly is looking a bit ragged. Wonder if he was nearly someone's lunch?

Nice set. Nice neighborhood.
No Topaz Simplify,The flowers were taken at Longwood gardens not far from my home on 4/17/2017 just before noon on a heavy overcast day. They are exactly as taken with a Sony A77II with a 100mm f2.8 macro lens. The pheasants and butterfly were taken less than 100 yards from my home with a Sony A65 with a Minolta 100-400 APO lens.
You have a lovely neighborhood. Thanks for taking us along.
Really beautiful shots, polonois!

That looked like a very pleasant pheasant. LOL 😂 of course!

Nice photos, especially the pheasants. I haven't seen a wild one in years.
