Beautiful birds!
Fine detail, interesting poses, nice environment with color and flowers.
I'd personally clean up the bird poop. :smile:
Nice!

A species I have yet to photograph (even though they are somewhat regular winter visitors in my neck of the woods). I like that you can see the eye on the one showing off its feathers even though the bird is so dark

Really nice, Ron. Good work on the blacks and whites. Nice habitat, too.

Would love to see these some day.

I really like the setting, the interaction between the birds and the way you composed this Ron.

Nice behavior and I like the color of the cliffs.

Beautiful image, Ron. Love the action, and I especially enjoy your composition and the great colors in the lichens and flowers. :toast:
