Our national bird. Love these amazing raptors
Coots in the sunrise. Lake Jackson is just a block east of us. I have to look at this each morning as I leave home for work.

Nice thread. I miss Swampsniper. Well, he probably understands by now how a bird feels to fly!
God bless you, Swampsniper!

BTW, what do you use to host images? (if you don’t mind sharing) I was using Dropbox, but they are no good anymore...I am casting about for another way to do it.

Thanks for the pings! Great shots! I've never seen a tricolored heron so that was real nice.
My walk today in the East Mojave was nice though. The black-throated sparrows have returned en masse. The whole desert was alive with their "two-notes-and-a-trill" morning song!

Nice thread. I miss Swampsniper. Well, he probably understands by now how a bird feels to fly! God bless you, Swampsniper! Perfect words. Birds belong to the air, the wind, the spirit... Swampsniper is with friends. :)
Beautiful photos, Is7. Thanks much!

Photobucket.com is one of the more popular image hosting websites here. I think they and tinypic are associated.

Not in your league as a photographer, and I never have a camera when I see our local eagles (two nesting pairs that I see regularly!). So here's a stolen pic that will appeal one way or another:
Yes, that's a pair of boobies.
