Nice set Chief. I go with the Palm Warbler No.1


Thanks Jack. As always, I like all of them and it's hard to pick a favorite. But I think it has to be the Yellow Rumped Warbler. Just something about that guy!

Your quite welcome CPO. Sometimes with the Yellow-rumps when it’s off breeding season they do not readily show their distinctive yellow tail light (we call them “Butter-bums” here up North). That’s especially true of the females. The split eyering along with its wing pattern helps to ID this species.
As for my mobility even though it’s decreasing every year a bit more that is not my main problem. The real problem is that they won’t let me (or any of my citizen friends ) into your country by car. I’m from North of the border (Canada) and the border has been closed to basically all of us from entering the U.S.A and has been for almost a full year. And as of today there appears that it will be staying that way for quite awhile. So instead of chasing Painted Buntings in Corkscrew Swamp I’m shooting Common Redpolls in a mini-blizzard! But I’m keeping my fingers crossed that next winter will be better and I can join you on the “Drive”.
Stay safe and catch a few more of the little ones.

Oh, Ok Ron. I misunderstood. I'm a resident of Alaska and couldn't get back across the border last year so I feel your pain. I hope things have eased up some this summer. I really should be getting back home. I have a brother who is a full time Alaska resident. He has been a real help but I hate to rely on him too much.

Very good images of birds. The gator is a plus for the landscape


Thanks very much Jorge. That Gator is the biggest one I've ever seen and it was a thrill to see him. And I'm glad he was a long way from me!

Great set. I really like #4, the sandhill cranes. That is definately a big gator.

Thank you Vince. Yeah, I was able to get about a dozen really nice photos of the cranes. They were easily a hundred and fifty yards out there, good thing they are big birds! And yes, a BIG Gator!
I'm glad you liked the set, thanks for looking in!
