Thank you Mark and Joshua. The eye gets that very prominent powder blue when mating season arrives.....gotta look good for their girls I guess :-)

Niiiiiice! Birds in flight (when they're not blurry) are just gold! You're right...the Law of Averages says you must - I photograph from the same ideal :D Surely just one will be good ha ha. Thank you for sharing this grand shot :)

venusflytrap2000 and stephanie you are both extremely kind. I take about 500 shots every time I go walking and get a "few" good ones. Law of averages says I have to right? Lol! Anyway thank you the appreciation of my amateur efforts is always appreciated. I am in amazing company with many of the images posted on PN! I am heavily addicted to seeing what amazing sights are posted every day. Thank you for your amazing contributions also!

As always James, your photography is amazing!
