Birds are flighty (no pun intended). Your photos capture much of the detail we fail to see as they pass by. Thanks.

Hi Sally, they are tough critter to photograph, especially the little ones. It is a treat when we can examine a photograph and see the magnificent details, patterns, colors etc we miss with our eyes. Hope your day is going well and thanks again for taking time to leave us some feedback as we really appreciate your thoughts.

Thanks, the oops part happens to us all the time. It is amazing how they can be right in your footsteps without even seeing them. Once they fly away into a ditch they are good as gone.
