Blue and Gray type of day

[Jim Almquist]

The bog was very cold with the temps starting out around -14 but it did warm up finally and the sky was very blue with very few clouds. The Gray Jays showed up and were ready to start modeling so I had to shoot them

Really nice, Jim! Man, those gray jays sure do make it good for us photographers.

Nice images! Your processing is advancing as well!

Good to see you again!

[MARINERMAGNUM]

Best ever Jim! Nice!

[Jim Almquist]

Thanks Buzz it was good to see you as well. I am a work in progress with lots still to learn.

MM I have to apologize for not taking the pics you requested but I will next time even though the wife said I can't post anymore bog birds so I will find some other critters and a old house or 2 Thanks for the kind comments

Just thought that I should add that all were taken with my 100-400 with Canon 30D

Those are very nice shots!

Pretty photos jim! That's a bird we don't see out here in Little House on the Prairie land. Have run across them on fishing trips up nort and remember they liked being fed some morsels from our table. Neat birds.

I think I like the first one the most. He looks so sweet and innocent, in that one.
