Socrate stunning images! My wife went: "wooow soo clear!" where does your backyard get all those colours from (blue,yellow,green) ?
I just can't get enough of looking at them!

Hi, Nello. Thank you (and your wife) for the comments. The yellow and green that you see in the bg are some of my bushes, the blue comes from a constraction of my neighborn (I believe is part of the swimmingpool). Pretty soon my bushes will grow taller and you won't see the blue any more.

Incredible series! No favorite because they all are so good. I like the wing movement in several of the shots.

Thanks Chad. I'm waiting for the Red-bellied to come to the feeder with his babies.

Be a while though.

Beautiful images. Over the years I've watched adult male songbirds feed the females they are courting. The females flutter their wings possibly imitating young birds. Most juveniles may be identified by the yellow around their bills, that prompts the adults to feed them.

Sorry Socrate, thought I had commented on these earlier. Very nice touch of parental bonding. You sure did well capturing very special moments, must have been a lot of bursts to sort through but very well presented. The rain adds an extra dimension to the shots IMO, I quite like #7. Great work...........again
