Now why haven't I seen thsi post before? *shrug* Great photos everyone. Mine don't compare but, everyone has to start somewhere. I also have zoo bird pictures I may post later.

Black Tern

Wild Trumpeter Swans (This was taken after the sun set, sorry for the bad quality, but I was still pleased that I practically stumbled across this pair)

Another poor quality, but once you get this look from an Osprey, it is time to leave. (There lays the last person trying to photograph her behind her)

Juvenile American Robin

Seagull in Windsor, Ontario

Yep, took me a while to find this thread...but I knew there must be a bird thread lurking somewhere
Lovely shots, that one of the Juv American Robin is perfect... and I like the composition of the Black Tern (Terns are always very elegant and photogenic).

cheers,
Hawkwind

Nice, that last one is a bit 'in yer face' House Sparrow shot is a very nice one, perfect illustration of this bird's lifestyle close to humans... good going getting a nice sized image of a small songbird with your camera.

After seeing a photo of an American Robin, thought I'd post one of the 'original' Robin

 

[doenoe]

hehe indeed, its really in yer face. That was taken on vacation, little house in a big forrest. Was really nice there. And those 2 geese came to our door every mornin. It was taken thru glass, cause we had to close the door. Else they would have been indoors. And those things were fat. Think everybody was feeding them........and the other animals too.
Anyways, here is another pic of a sparrow, closer then the first one. Same camera.
