New toy! It looks like a keeper. You'll appreciate the faster focusing.

Wilson's Phalarope

Posted By Cal Sandfort

Thanks everyone for your comments!

We returned to the lake to photograph gulls and found this female phalarope. I think her colors are nicer than the bird in the first photograph.

Black-headed Grosbeak

Posted By Cal Sandfort

Cool shots! The Chickadee is very nice. I've tried Grosbeaks too and don't have anything as nice as yours. We have a lot of them in a valley north of the city so I'll try again in a few weeks.

ID??

My guess would be a Wood-Pewee but I can't quite tell if there is any color on the lower beak? Neat little bird.
