That peacock doesn't look battered to me - what a lovely position you captured there and the color is outstanding!
I really like the Spoonbill among the terns - very cool.
Funny -- as common as the Goldfinch is around here - don't think I ever took notice of a juvenile...
Oops - sorry those are NOT Terns ;-)
You certainly didn't come up empty....the wigeon flight and the butterfly are my favorites, but they are all nice.
enjoyed your pictures, but I was thinking when I saw the sleepy woodpigeon, that is probably about what you must look like after your 'drunken' days!! Keep on posting .. love it!
The peacock butterfly is beautiful, never seen one of these. Thanks for sharing.
