  3. Does Mrs Finch turn a cold shoulder or a blind eye to Mr Finch's stunning colours? Super photos. I'll catch up with Beep this week too. Cheers to all, Jean.

  6. Perfect Ruby Tuesday images. We've had a few of these at our bird feeders this winter, but cardinals dominate the woods surrounding our house.

  11. Beautiful captures, Karen. (I've just returned from an amazing 3 week house exchange on Vancouver Island and was captivated by the wonderful variety of birds there; it seemed to me that the cooler climate lends itself to sharper photographic results - but perhaps that's my crazy imagination!)
