Nice. It seems like that's a good spot for birding. I frequently see posts from there on the rare bird alert sites.

imgbb is a good one to use so you're close. when you click on the link, at the bottom it says "embed code". click it.

you'll see a bunch of url/html text. pick the one that says BB code under "full image", then it will show on the board like this:

Nice shot! Lots going on in the photo, and it must've been hard to find a good framing with all those gulls!

Here's a couple of mine from the past couple of months.

We just got home for the holidays; it's been a busy past few weeks!

I treated myself to a black friday sale for a Nikon D750. It doesn't disappoint!

Sunshine comes at a premium since we landed after the new year. Less than 15% of our regular flights have landed since we've been back, too.

Anyways, the sun shined on the village yesterday! I love full frame photography. The dynamic range truly brings out the different shades of white, and the photo doesn't get blown out by white snow.

Thanks, Rocket, you're very kind. Most of those were shot on a Lumix. Hoping to get a 5D one of these days.

That's a nice collection...I really like the barns and bridges, as well as your bw and sepia work. If you ever want to shoot some wildlife, let me know. I know some great spring birding hotspots and active bald eagle nests in our area.

It's not a picture, but a well done video from a birder. See how many of these birds you can identify...neat stuff, imo...mac

Very cool. Thanks for sharing, Mac. I'm not really a birder so I wouldn't know a speckled finch from a wood thrush, but I do like photographing birds from time to time. Here are a few I like:

cal...so many different varieties of birds and that makes them tough to identify. Looking at the 3 pictures you posted, I'll take a guess...

Top 2 pictures look to be a grackle...
Next, just a guess, might be some kind of woodpecker...(unsure).
Last bird is nothing like I've seen here in Ohio. Might be some kind of bird of paradise...just a guess.

Thanks Mac! I would've said black bird, some kind of bird, and stringy bird. thumbsup

I'm wondering if the bird above the last picture is a juvenile heron...looks an awful lot like one.

I’d agree, it definately does look like a juvenile heron.

cal..I must admit, I did take ornithology in college...but it was a few years ago, lol.

I do believe that Tulsa nailed "stringy bird"...it does look like a Black Crowned Night Heron. It is not native to our area and I don't believe I've ever seen one. I totally misread the picture, thinking this was a smaller bird...this Heron is 23" to 28" tall at maturity. Missed by a little bit... grin

Yes, it's large bird, probably 18" or so, maybe bigger. The bottom two photos were taken at Brookgreen Gardens and the "blackbird" was taken at Myrtle Beach.
