The other thread was getting pretty long. I really enjoy stopping in to look at what everyone has to post up for the day.
This one was taken about a mile south of my cabin in NW MN. The Nature Conservancy owns a lot of land there and burns often in the fall but this one was a wild fire roaring across the prairie late in the day.

He is looking really skinny. Nice picture.

quote mooseplums: "Sunset~ March 28, 2013 (too bad about the powerlines) "
The power lines should be very easy to remove with any editing software that has a "healing brush". Nice capture.

I think that is what this is as well (I am not good at bird ID) He had quite a loud song and provided good entertainment while waiting for a plane ride out of Echo Lake MB.

These two males were competing for this one female early one May morning . It was quite a show that went on for 20 minutes. They were oblivious to my presence. Here they posed as she sized them up.

Went for a walk in the Minnesota River Valley. All kinds of waterfowl migrating but everything was off in the distance. Some swans landed off in the distance and started to spar as the sun was going down.

wish I had a photo program and knew how to take out all the twigs and sticks..."
I like this one better with the twigs. The light is perfect. The grouse is very sharp and a natural setting.

The Common tern is the most widespread tern of the Tern Family

The bird guy at work says the pink legs vs dark red legs make and bigger darker bill make it a Bonapartes gull. I looked online and they sure look a lot alike.
