Catface Spider

Posted By Tyler Allred

I'm not sure about the name....but that is what I have always called them. Although these get quite large, this one was only about 1/4 inch across.

Egret with a snack

Posted By Tyler Allred

I had a great morning of picture taking today. The weather was lovely and the birds were cooperating. Here is a shot of a snowy egret with a fish in his bill, taken this morning with the VR.
Enjoy,

Hummer Portrait

Posted By Tyler Allred

This was cropped to 800x600, at native resolution, from a 3008x2000 photo I took at my feeder tonight. This is the first time I have noticed that the neck markings are actually just the centers of feathers that have the iridescent coloration.
Cheers,

Red-tailed Hawk ? (Maybe Swainson's)

Posted By Tyler Allred

This bird was watching as a farmer baled his hay....I'm sure he picked up a couple of tasty morsels that lost hiding places in the windrows. The long tail makes me suspect that it could be a Swainson's Hawk.
