First, I want to thank all of you who have shared your Great Bird Pics in the Birds of Prey – With Prey Contest. Lots of interesting shots of raptors – if you have a stomach for it. Keep them coming! Some very interesting pics to share with you today. Some with lots of color and one without. Which do you like best?
Here’s a colorful picture where the flowers provide most of the color. The Ruby-throated Hummingbird is interesting but not as bright. Thanks to Avneet Kaur for the shot.
Here’s a bird that pops with color – a Lazuli Bunting. Taken by dwarles in British Columbia, Canada. It doesn’t get much more colorful than that!
Let’s take it down a notch in color. At first glance I didn’t see the color at all in these two Australian ducks but then when I saw they were Pink-eared Ducks I was able to focus on the small patch of color on the head. Thanks for sharing Photogirl10!
Lastly here’s a lack of color. These Wild Turkeys were prowling around LouAlexander’s back yard in San Diego, CA. A little red on the wattle is all the color we get. Let’s revisit them in breeding season!
