Tack sharp heron and I love the mood created by the background elements. Great image.

This seems like it might be one of those notable mistakes Edwin is referencing.

Gary, Great textures, colors and composition on the tree trunk.

Not to mention, aphids! A veritable explosion of colors.

D500, 200-400/4 at 200, 1/320, f11, ISO 1000. I was hoping for birds.

Beautiful raptors, beautiful image.

Accumulation of several foggy/frosty mornings and still cloudy days in Central WI.

I guess there are more people that DON’T share my sentiment. For me the photography and the learning go together. And I was thinking it would be something people could do voluntarily if they knew the species or wanted to learn it before posting. Some already do it. But I understand this is a photography forum and appreciate the reasons suggested for not doing this.

I would really like to know the species when pictures of wildlife, particularly birds, are posted. I'm thinking there may be others that share my sentiment. Happy holidays, all.

Beautiful bird!

GHO & owlet in a wooded area near my WI home. Way up high, so an odd perspective with some foreground clutter.

Dieter, If your other pictures at Flickr are the same hawk, I’d probably go 70/30 for Cooper’s. Always a tough one for me, especially when I’m trying to identify at a distance, in flight, through binocs.

Short-eared owl at Buena Vista Grasslands, WI on 1/4. Can’t claim to be overly excited by the image quality - combination of being fair distance away, right at or a little after sunset, fast motion and probably poor operator technique. Nevertheless, these are beautiful, graceful and gregarious acrobats that are a joy to watch.

Snowy Owl yesterday, Buena Vista Grasslands, WI

This bird we are discussing certainly looks to me like it could be a Marbled Godwit. If that bird is common in the area where the image was taken and the Hudsonian would be uncommon to rare, why exactly are we still thinking that might be what it is? Maybe I'm too pragmatic or not wishful enough. This sort of reminds me of the eastern and western meadowlark. If you see a meadowlark in the eastern or western range, then you know which it is. If you are in the uncommon part where the ranges overlap, then it could be either and you can only positively identify by hearing the song. It seems like we are talking about a "western meadowlark in the west". I thinks it's a western. :)

Bill, Was in Austin for a meeting in late October and visited LB for the first time. Great place that I hope to visit again. Thanks for your volunteer service. I’m not sure what trail this was on, but it was in the area of the family garden. Must be a little habituated, because it wasn’t as skittish as roadrunners I’ve seen in the wild. Rod
