This page of the thread is awesome! Great captures everyone. Here are a couple of my humble submissions.
Jayson, I really like the second one of the Robin---I love it when the you can capture the subject and the natural surroundings, yet still keep the subject the primary focus of the shot. You did that well, here. I also appreciate the effort required for the first shot---I'm guessing you were on your belly in the grass to get that shot
Nice job on both.

@thekingb - nice shots! Looks like you had a little better luck this time out there! I was there a few weeks ago but it was still pretty empty ...a few cranes, pelicans, ducks and maybe a couple gbh's. I'm hoping to go again in about a month, it should be pretty active by then! I hear the snowy owl is still hanging around out there!
Thanks! It's such a special place. I've seen so many types of duck also -- red head, blue winged teal, pied billed grebe, coot, etc. They're just outside the range of my 70-300, so the shots aren't great. I'm trying for some early morning shots tomorrow. 500mm would be really nice here!Originally Posted by ddt0725

Wow...those Tree Swallow's are cool...very well done!
Great flight shots on the Bald Eagles.....I would love a chance like that!
Ok so this was from phone - but a white phase sparrow is not exactly common - it seems to have taken up residence at our local starbucks

When I get my camera back from Canon I will take a proper picture and post.
