  2. Wow great bird photos & color. Seeing a pygmy owl is the neatest thing. I saw one last year ... it was amazing to see it high in a tree - so small an owl. beautiful spots on it. Enjoy.

  10. Wow! Look at those beautiful birds. All of these are new-to-me birds.

    We are headed to the Gulf Coast Bird Observatory today to volunteer during Spring Fling there. I hope we aren't too late to see some of the migratory birds.
