Great images happening in this thread. Nate, glad to see your back. Really like the photo. I agree with Joel, the flowers make that even better.
Joel, what a nice guy. Wonder if he was serving wine with dinner?
he is being romantic but it looks like she just said NO lol. great shot Joel !
Thanks guys for the comments and likes!
Joel, I really enjoy your song bird images, I think they are much more difficult to photograph then shore birds.
Very nice WBB Nate...the soft flowers do add to the photo's appeal.
Joel...great capture of this ritual of spring, but I'm not sure you've captured romance. Her facial expression looks a bit hostile to me :D

Very nice Bill. I haven't seen a female yet this year. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough. Beautifully captured.
