Still mulling over which one to post this week, 2 newbies, one on my hit list and waiting to id another possible hit list contender?

Week 44. Clark's Grebe, newbie for me and a Western Grebe with chick.

Clark's

if i had known at the time this was a Clark's i would have taken some more shots. Next time.

Western.

 

[Roy1961]

notice the difference between the two, the Clark's has white above its eye while the westerns is black.

 

[Roy1961]

i so wanted to post the Snowy, but i will go back to Lake Skinner on Sat and try and shoot it again.

 

[Roy1961]

think i got a Sharp Shinned Hawk, but its in the shade.

 

[Roy1961]

Week 45, Coopers Hawk.

 

[Roy1961]

Week 45 part 2. White winged Dove. New for me.

 

[Roy1961]

Week 46, Male and Female Vermillion.

 

[Roy1961]

Week 47, Snowy Egret.

 

[Roy1961]

down to our last 5 weeks, still would like the Harrier, White tailed kite, Kestrel, Common Yellowthroat, mountain bluebird and or a Northern pintail. We will see what is available and camera friendly.

 

[Roy1961]

Week 48, Northern Harrier.

i should have had the male only for an operator error.

 

[Roy1961]

Week 49, White Tailed Kite.

 

[Stoshowicz]

Lucky dog , verry nice .

 

[Roy1961]

sometimes you get lucky.

i must say this has been a real good challenge, way better than the 365 which can become a grind at times, this one made me plan and think, i have one already for week 50, but just in case i get one of the ones i really want today, i will post up later. Only 3 more posts to go.
