Robin's Life Birds

[Woodyg3]

A Peregrine Falcon. This was a total surprise, it was just getting light and I thought I was taking a picture of a Kestrel. When I adjusted the lighting in Lightroom I found out it was a Peregrine Falcon. It is the first one seen in Oldham County, where I live, that I know of.View attachment 415200

That's fantastic!

The first photo is the first photo of any Kestrel I have ever taken. I took it with my first camera, a Nikon D3500. I think it is still the best photo I have of a Kestrel. They are so wary.

Nice in-flight shots of the kestrel Robin! Mine are always blurry!!

This is a Blue-Grey Gnatcatcher. I have other pictures but somehow over the course of the year I lost a bunch of photos and these were the only two of this little bird I could find. Guess I will have to go get more.

This is a White Breasted Nuthatch. The last photo is a composite of 2 photos taken within a second of each other. I merged them to have both birds in focus. It was featured on the Wingscapes Facebook page. They produce automatic feeders. My son had bought me one 2 years ago for Christmas and I submitted the photo to them and they posted it almost immediately.

This is a Dark Eyed Junco. We have many of these who visit our feeder. The 4th photo is of a female the rest are the male. The female has more brown on her than the male.

This is a Cackler goose. He was a lonely little goose, all the Canada Geese and the swans at this lake kept running him off.

A very nice collection of photos on this page, Robin! Small birds are always so difficult to photograph...

A Killdeer at Wendell Moore Park allowed me to get pretty close while he posed.

Trumpeter Swans. We don't get many of these swans around here. So it was a real treat when these two showed up at a local lake. Unfortunately, they preferred to stay way on the other side.

Yellow Crowned Night Heron. He did not care for me taking his photo so this is the only photo so far.
