A very nice set Kevin. I've never seen any of these, and you did great with them. 1, 4, 5, and 8 are my picks ~ Ron

What a fabulous set of exotic (for most of us) birds. The pheasant is a really pretty bird, maybe adjust the WB in the first to lessen the blue tint Love the flycatcher, 4, that's my favorite followed by 6 which is another wonderful comp. Great work!

Gorgeous set!! The pheasant is a beautiful bird .
The 4th has to be my absolute favorite of this Marvelous set. The composition is just stunning as is the shot

Thanks Ron ! Part of the reason I enjoy coming on the FM Nature forum is that I get to see great photos of birds/wildlife from all over the world. Most of your North American birds are unknown to me

Though these not very good shots I thought you might like to see a few that give you a better view of the gorgeous eyes of the Japanese (and very similar 'Asian') Paradise Flycatchers - the male also has a near 1m (1 yd) long tail too. The eye colour is a little dull in the first shot below as the birds are now out of breeding plumage however in season they look more like those of the two Asian PFs shown below in breeding colours. I also think the first one below is a juvenile.

Japanese Paradise Flycatcher (F)


Asian Paradise Flycatcher (F) (ignore the title on the shot - it's wrong)


Asian Paradise Flycatcher (M) (the Japanese is very similar but the tail is mostly black)

What a fabulous set. Those pheasants look huge, how do they compare in size to the ringnecks we have here in the states. Great comp of 4, and 6 just flat out rocks!!
