Really amazing shots, Mike.  Thanks for sharing.

I can't believe the colors on those turkeys.

Growing up, we used to see meadowlarks everywhere. Now they seem to be few and far between.
My best bird sighting this winter was a crested kinglet.
Nice seeing your images.

Mockingbird

Gray Vireo (I think)
We were trying to hide on a ridge overlooking two valleys in the park when this guy discovered us. He might be tiny but he's got a set of lungs!

So that owl I spotted, he has been in hiding. I will keep monitoring.

I have had a red tail hawk hanging out between my house and my neighbors, but he doesn't stick around long enough for me to get my camera out.
