Sandhill Cranes are pretty amazing birds. Very nice photo! I went to the Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge, near Socorro, New Mexico a couple of years ago to try to photograph them. I was in a line of at least twenty photographers, and the cheapest lens (besides mine), must have been around $6,000.00! Wow, I suffered from lens envy...

Very pretty, and very well photographed! Do you still have snow in Colorado? I guess you must...

Woodpeckers are such interesting birds. The red head & checkerboard pattern on the wings really makes them stand out. Nice photo.

What an incredible shot! They are sure beautiful birds. There is a pair of red tailed hawks nesting just off of our property. The female is currently sitting on eggs. I can hardly wait to see the juveniles flying.

It took me a minute to see the second owl. I really want to get a photo of one in the wild. Great job capturing these incredible creatures.

I've seen a couple of bald eagles here over the past couple of months, but didn't have my camera with me. They sure are beautiful birds!

What a nice stop action photo! There is so little water in this part of the country, I rarely see ducks.

Black colored birds, for me at least, are the hardest to photograph. You did a good job of capturing the detail.
