I really appreciate it shine light. It was a little out of focus therefore I played with it in my filters.

Yes, a feed me look on this white one. I see the tags, good frame and focused with some big feet. I watch some hummingbirds get tagged today. Good work.

Eileen - did you change your copyright?

This image is priceless! I can only imagine it on a hallmark card. You certainly get one of my last 6's for this week. I love it. Keep up the great work. Kathy :-)

I did Kathy. You like it better? I do, thought it looked more professional. :) Thanks so much for your last six. Glad you feel I deserve it :)

reply by Kbanich on 26-Jul-2014

Realized I had 3 left and thought I better get on it. You certainly deserved them. Great images. Kathy

Comment from Wiltchy
There's an almost comical air to this picture with the bands around the Ibis's leg. I like how all the focus is on the bird and its perch that is really clear.

Comment from Sange
You are handling the fractalius filter just right lately for the bird shots to just help them crisp up the details a bit.
I like the tilted head glance and your sweet DOF! Why must they tag both legs? Grrr
Nice unique capture from the Avian queen! =)
