Please note that the forthcoming series of photographic snippets, obtained as before
by tightly cropping photographs that I've taken, have now also been processed
with an Art-Filter to simulate a rendering.

This added wrinkle may or may not make bird identification more onerous.
Considering that the hallmarks of ID are really a matter of shape, pattern and
colour and to some extent circumstance I don't actually believe this Art-House
approach will deter anyone for long, if at all.

Bird ROMEO


Bird SIERRA


Bird TANGO


Bird UNIFORM

Sierra is a she, but SHE is not a whimbrel.
Shorter legs and the bill, well that would be way different.

Yes, Sierra is a duck, not a sandpiper.
It is NOT a Mottled duck, but it does appear ... mottled.

Bird WHISKEY is a Brown Creeper
Sierra is NOT a Mallard
Bird X-RAY is NOT a Pine warbler
Bird ZULU is NOT a Common Yellowthroat ... which always has a yellow throat
whether male or female, whether adult of juvenile. If I'm wrong about that
someone will likely not let me get away with that statement.
