A very thoughtful purple finch … wonder if he should have been called red. 🙂 Super images

Thank you Julie! I have given up on why some birds are named the way they are.

I particularly like the shot of the female mallard – such delicate colours. I feel they are often overlooked in favour of the flashier males.

The female Mallards are often seen with a coterie of male Mallards swimming alongside them!

The surface of the lake and the afternoon sun went well together in that shot.

Love these! Birds looking like they might be trying figure out who is taking their picture.

Sweet captures, Hien. The finches appear to be glancing at each other. 🙂 I esp. like the reflected blue background behind the mallard.

Thanks, Eliza! That Mallard could be the mother of some ducklings in a few more weeks. I will try to photograph her with them, if possible.
