Great shots Stuart and Bill!

My feeders went up a little over a week ago. One is nearly empty (they are small), but I haven't seen any HB's yet.

Stuart....nice shot, like the "very" low composition of the duck.

The Orioles have returned in force this spring....there were 6 at the feeding station yesterday.

This is going to be a good Spring/Summer for the thread. You have Joel who consistently produces excellent quality images; you have Bill W with his "Big White" back posting excellent images; and now Nate comes back and hits a home run with his first post of the season. The big guns are loaded, and I am just going to sit back and enjoy the show.

Please, please, please keep posting. You guys are the reason I started lurking on this site years ago. I learned a lot from you all, and still do.

I agree Pat. I started watching and became inspired to post images because of Nate's work when this thread first started!

Love your f Cardinal's pose Joel....nice capture. Thanks Pat and it's good to see Nate posting again. He and Joel take great pix day in and day out.

Jealous of Nate's HB pic....I don't have any flowers blooming yet.

Here's a real PITA at my feeding stations, but IMO, the Grackles' iridescence rivals the Ruby-throated HBs in my garden.
