    Michael,

    Nice shot of the Roadrunner. When I was down in Texas this past year, they
    never came out like that for me.

    I did do a little post processing on the image. I thought it was a tad dark.
    So I applied a Curves Adjustment and Shadow Highlight.

    Excellent. I thought it was a little dark too but was kind of rushing through the posting process. I need to watch that on this forum. Higher standards (good thing) and all that.

    I could not believe this guy. He just sat there for 10 or 15 minutes. I have tons of shots but this one was my favorite.

    Doug is the re-posting maniac today and that is greatly appreciated. On this one the repost is better but a bit too light for my taste. I like the image. In situations like this, it is pretty much impetative that the bird's head be turned abck all the way to square.

    This repost is by the other Doug Artie. I reposted the toucan and the raptor. Doug West did this one.

    Nice repost. Is this a fence stump?

    If it is, this should be moved to Avian Hand of Man.
