A nice variety  - also beautifully composed.

Wow those are excellent shots of some interesting birds.

Thank you Dinusaur & Rotarran.
I've been having fun with a new lens - the 150-600 mm tamron.

Nice set. The Cactus Wren is stunning!

Impressive quality with that lens.  If I ever decide to carry a lens that big, that would probably be the one.

Nice shots!  Love the Cactus Wren!  Seeing the Phainopepla reminds me of the late Mr. P, the Phainopepla that came to Brampton back in 2009.  Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Brian - the lens is large but it isn't that heavy - I haven't needed a tripod yet.

Thanks Walter. I didn't know about a Phainopepla in Brampton in 2009. Crazy.
