Captured this morning. A male and female Gadwall. They're not a colorful bird but they have a certain muted elegance.

Apparently I'm in to photographing birds now. Just kind of evolved when I picked up a slr off of Craigslist.

It's a deadly addiction. Once you get hooked you can never stop. Especially when you capture a bird you've never seen before. I feel for you. LOL

Your first bird is an English Sparrow a.k.a. House Sparrow (introduced species). The second one looks like either a Red-shouldered Hawk or a Red-tailed hawk. I think I see a belly band and that usually means a Red-tailed Hawk and we all know what the last one is. :p

Thank for that. I actually had no idea what the 1st bird was.

There were 2 other birds that were too fast for me today. Both pecking on some wood. One was bigger, jet black with red feathers on top his head and the other was smaller, blue and grey. Lots of Cardinals around here.
