Great pics - I particularly like #1 with the reflections.
Interesting shot with the contrail. Had to download it to figure out what it was. Good series.
I appreciate the setup info on the pic. I particularly like the glint in its eye. Thanks for posting.
Hope you all have a safe holiday. This Wild Turkey was at Cantigny, in Winfield, IL. A beattiful place - the former estate of Robert McCormick, publisher of the Chicago Tribune. Now has a WWI museum, beautiful gardens, and many great events (i.e. Revolutionary War re-enactment, concerts). Also has the best public golf course in the area. They do bird walks on the golf course periodically.
If you use LR throw some (<100) into the slideshow module and play with the length of time each slide is shown. It will tell you how long the slideshow will be. View it yourself and see if you get bored - if so, cut down the number of pics and/or how long each one is displayed.
Great pic in what looks like difficult light.
All I have to say is - Wow! Nice shots.

Very nice!
Interesting historic bit too.
Do look at the download!
I agree on both comments!
The download looks even better - great shot.
Nice job - it's hard to get good shots of these birds.
Beautiful shot - where was it taken?
All nice and I like the first one the best.
I, too was disappointed that Flickr started charging for more than 1,000 pics. I currently have more then 5,000 on there and was building a collection of albums of birds seen in Illinois as a reference guide. Until the changeover, Flickr proudly told me I had used 1.32145455632% of my free Terabyte. So they evidently had no problem letting 10's of thousands of users operate for free within the Terabyte limit. Since they would have started to delete my pictures after Jan 1, 2019 I decided to purchase the Pro version (for a "discounted" rate of $38) to buy some time (I kicked myself after upgrading now - if I would have waited till Dec. 31 I would have bought myself even more time). By the end of the year I hope to have figured out how to put the pictures up on a website for less cost (any suggestions?).
It also could be a Yellow-rumped Warbler (immature), although I'm not discounting the possibility that it also could be the Pine Sisken as previously suggested.
