  15. Hi Bob,

    Yesterday I commented on the putter (goldfinch) but I see that there is no response to see so where it is I do not know but still I will tell you it's a great series is what a beautiful bird is it saying with his beautiful colors!
    Beautifully-scheduled hearing well done!!
    And now the Spoonbill also beautifully hopefully manage to post! Response
    Meanwhile I also tried it with the putter again!
    Please let me know if it worked?
    grt,
    Annie

    1. I am sorry, but I don't understand what a "putter" is. In my language a putter is a thing you play golf. So sorry!

  19. you can't always ask a bird to stand in a different spot, they just take no notice ... I love the textural quality showing on the bill; lighting was great there; fabulous images Bob

  23. Pues ese ligero contraluz incluso ha sido positivo a la hora de hacer destacar más las características de este ave. Un abrazo,
