Dave,
that last Robin shot looks just like the pose from an Audubon painting. Amazing stuff, thanks!

Excellent observation Little z. I really love that photo and I couldn't put my finger on why it was so pleasing...but you did. Cool!

Will we be able to spend an hour and a half profitably outside the grounds?

Lots of great new pix all, except for those scary 'mordor' birds from Mike B - what da heck happened to their head feathers? Really looking forward to seeing all of you that can attend the birdapalooza on Saturday 4/6 at SCBG as the starting point :-) Cyndie - looks like a Hairy Woodpecker to me, beak is larger and thicker than a Downy. Cool birds for sure!

Dirt Claud - we will bird all day Sunday as well. Our flight is at about 6pm so that is our only obligation. I think we'll make the decision on where we'll be on Saturday. Stay in touch via phone and we can let you know what time and where.
What is the story on the mordor birds upthread? Genetic issues? Over-zealous mate preening?
