The Clay-colored Robins are superb. I like the details. Focus is spot on.

Hi Tonji, you must have a lot of photos from Cape May. By the way, it is currently warbler spring migration season so look out for those small birds. May is the best month to go birding in Cape May, so they say.

Hi everyone, Haven't posted in a long time because I haven't done any shooting lately. Went out and hiked at a local forest trail and chanced upon this Summer Tanager on a creek bed taking a bath.

Nice capture Adri. Are you sure you captured a Frogmouth and not a feathered Frog? Hahaha.... Those eyes are awesome.

@sir Ely: Yes, you're right. Its name came from its mournful call oowoo-woo-woo-woo. And yes, you're right again about the distance. I checked the Exif and it says 7.65m.
@ramon: This was taken towards the end of winter so the trees are still void of leaves. When I took this photo, the bird was calling so it was puffing up its chest, very much like a pigeon does when it coos.

Wonderful harvest Sir Ely. This one is my favorite.

That's a nice close up shot of the bird. And I like the low angle too.

Thanks for the comments. @sir Ely: I'm really itching to go out again to the parks and shoot. It's just a short wait before all the spring birds come again.
