I don’t love asking for ratings, but I’d appreciate them on these two from today.Â
Absolutely fantastic shots!!

Based on the blood on its beak it looks like this Gray Heron had a fresh kill in the rain; " unfortunately" I did not witness that

Thanks, let's see if anyone else has another opinion 🙂Â

One from back home. It took a while for me to figure out what species it was, at first in the field I thought it was an ordinary buzzard. However, several apps and algorithms had problems with identifying this bird. Eventually someone noted the shape of the nostril; which is apparently distinct for the European Honey-buzzard. Even though this is "just" a joung bird, I am still happy with my first sighting of this species! 🙂Â

Nope, just casual interest. Cypress is about 90 minutes away and we visit every few years. The swamp garden is a great place to see breeding wading birds in the spring.
Nice, great tip for next time! Thanks

Today a white-breasted nuthatch from the trip; love the lichen on the tree branch

Tim, were these shot at the Audubon Swamp Gardens at Cypress Gardens?
They were "just" at the Cypress Gardens, we only went for a boat ride and then we walked around the pond where I took these pictures. Any particular reason you are asking? 🙂Â

Same here; for me it is not possible to go birding, make a selection, and edit those pictures on a regular day. We just got back from vacation and need to sort through, select, and edit a bit over 5000 photos. So here are the first that are done. I wish I could have gone lower with the green heron, but with several alligators nearby, I thought that was not a good idea 😅

Thanks for the input! Not sure if I will label it with the uncertainty

Perfect, thanks 🙂Â

Unfortunately not, they kept stationary at all times when I was shooting them

Thanks 🙂

Thanks, I will have a look if I have any other angles. I for sure have no flight shots and I heard no sound from them

Currently on a road trip from Orlando to Boston, so will have a few posts throughout the East Coast. Saw this one and I thought it was a dark-eyed junco since it showed quite distinct flaring of the white outer tailfeathers when landing, but eBird told me to specifically check since this was a rare sighting at this spot.. Seen in the Shenandoah state park Aug 28. These are two different birds

Not sure if this would fit here, but IÂ need your help! I was playing around with some environmental backlight shots. What do you guys like the best? I think my preference goes to the first image shown here. I realize the bird is tiny in the frame, but that is why I labelled it as an environmental shot.
A comment here or rating on eBird, all feedback is welcome 🙂

Haha, and that is a good or a bad thing? 😅
