All of them sre great shots, I always have a hard time getting any birds, I think I am too impatint and try to get too close, I have a Sigma 135-400, and with the K5 or Kx that makes it 200-600, so you would think I would just sit and wait...

Thanks George for viewing and leaving your comments...always enjoy reading them...Patience and Persistence...two qualities that a photographer has to have to photograph wildlife especially birds...and sometimes just a little luck of being in the right place at the right time...walking or stationary???...I think that this varies from photographer to photographer...depends on what you are more comfortable with...for most of these photos, I found a spot that had a drip area that attracted the birds...so I set up my camera and tripod and let the birds come to me...

Ron
