Nice! Can you ID them?

whoops sorry bro the top one i have no idea what it is still trying to figure that one out the bottom one is a malachite king fisher one of my favourite birds just hard to find them as they are sneaky sneaky, got a nice shot i can add if you want to see it with a big fish in its mouth that i got previously..
 
This was at a different spot I did slightly miss the focus which really sucks as this would have been one of my favorite images ever taken but they are so damn fast and don't know where they come back up again also taken with my old lens

By all means, show us more.

There you quality is not the best as I was using my old lens and this stupid branch in front of the malachite aswell.. They always want to go sit on the less photographic place possible lol... Really have a lot of love for this bird and sit hours in a hide hoping for one to pass by...
 
not the best quality photos thats why i didn't post them :upset:
 
These aren't the best but the story is funny-ish. I have a pair of cardinals a house or two over. I have been trying to get a picture of the female for MONTHS. It's like she has a sixth sense for a camera, though. I have it, she is a ghost. I finally got her while she was playing around with a car mirror.

Off she flew. The little angry cheeps were so loud! Little diva.

Perhaps not. But how many others have a shot of that kingfisher coming out of the water like that. Very nice!
 
Got a new species fro us today, in fact two. This one is a Chestnut-sided Warbler. Spooky little sucker we got a grand total of three quickies of him,,,this was the best. Though far from good! Hey, with thse little suckers you take what you get. ;)
