Birds of TN.
« on: March 10, 2014, 11:08:04 PM »
A collection of birds of TN. I'll be adding to this as I get them.  ;D I'm not going to do a lot of editing on these.
Downy Woodpecker



Wood Thrush. Most beautiful sounding bird you'll ever want to hear.


I helped my daughter get this Tufted Titmouse shot today during the magic hour.

Great shots Mike.

Thanks! It's a lot of fun going after these guys.
Got a better shot of the Wood Thrush today. Other then him everybody else seemed to be in hiding.

Thanks!

I got lucky to be part of this shot. The young Hawk was so hungry that he didn't mind my presence at all. That's the closest I've been to a wild RTH and it was very cool!
