Post your best bird shots!

Dang I wish i had known you were up this way for that owl. The one I shot is only about 30 min west of where you were and is constantly baited so it's almost a guarantee that you will get close shots. It will still be there for another 2 or 3 weeks unless the weather gets really warm .So if you wanna come back just pm me , its only an hour from my place.

A sure sign of spring .... American Robins returning in fairly large numbers

Definitely signs of spring here this past weekend. Temps at least 20 degrees above normal had the song birds putting on quite a show.

Those are really nice images....great light and detail....my yard is frequently in less than optimum light due to the orientation of the house and very tall trees that surround us. I look forward to bright overcast days

I am so excited to have gotten a shot of this bird that I just had to share!! The European goldfinch is a rare beauty in SE Wisconsin but as of late, people have said that have seen approx. 30 at one spot!
