Bald Eagle

Posted By Kurt Horsley
Okay...I admit it...
I photographed this one at the zoo. I used a long focal length to blur out the fence so it wouldn't be in the picture. Worked out pretty well.

Identification help

Posted By Kurt Horsley
Can anyone identify this little bird? I thought it might be a solitary vireo, but it's a little too large for that. Maybe it's a white-eyed vireo? -Kurt Horsley

Killdeer nest

Posted By Kurt Horsley
I was out picking up golf balls in a dirt field when I came across the nest. I walked passed it a dozen times before I saw it. Mother killdeer stayed close, so I should have known she had a nest nearby. -Kurt Horsley

Coopers Hawk

Posted By Kurt Horsley
I got fairly close to this one yesterday. It had a kill under its perch, and was reluctant to leave it.
There's a bit of chromatism from the teleconverter I was using. -Kurt Horsley

Dial-up birds

Posted By Kurt Horsley
Over fifty new posts, many with images this evening. That just ain't gonna happen with a dial-up connection. Somebody tell me what I'm missing. -Kurt Horsley
