p.1 #1 · A few from Boulder's Sawhill Ponds

One of the nice things about spring in Colorado is the diversity of birds that either wanders through or stays on.

owlet looking for mama

stealth mode?

American avocet - a first for me here at the ponds

OK, a second avocet

I've bounced around on this guy but I think a long-billed dowitcher

Jim, I think you are right about the dowitcher; I saw him or her today in the same spot. Nice shots in less-than-ideal lighting.

LBD looks right to me and congrats on the Avocet Jim.

Love the Owlet looking for mama and I like your composition showing a lot of the tree hollow.

Stealth Mode is a great title and very cool image.

Nice set. Good behavior shot of the geese. I've seen them do the bent-neck thing a number of times.

Kirk,

Thanks for the many kind words. I've been having quite a bit of fun with the owls this year.

Dean,

It looks like you aren't too far away and there's always something fun to see out there.

Thanks for the comments. It is fun to watch the geese and their bits of social interactions and heaven knows we have a lot of geese around here

Nicely done Jim. 2 is my pick, and it reminds me of the song "walk Like an Egyptian" ~ Ron
