What a great way to begin 2013: capturing a rock wren for the first time and finally seeing the zone-tailed hawk after several tries! I am happy with this year so far! Trude

Congrats on the ZTH and Rock Wren Trude, KF ain't too bad either... yes, wonderful way to start the new year.
I really like the Rock Wren image... terrific perch, BG, and composition. Well done.

Congrats on your Rock Wren, Trude! This is a great way to start the year. A very fine set of images. May be the color of he sky looks a bit off in #5 on my monitor.
The KF look so good that makes you forget about the perch Well done

Thanks, everyone for your kind comments. That female kingfisher was definitely cooperative for a few moments, but there was a chain link fence between us. Here’s a horizontal photo taken a few seconds prior to my vertical one:

I loved how the colors of the Rock Wren matched the jetty rock …or vice versa!

Hey, Socrate, the Zone-tailed Hawk was circling against lots of clouds and different colors of blue sky. While processing, I paid more attention to exposing the gray body, but I will take another look at the blue on that photo to see if I can fix it. Thanks for noticing.
