DI Help
I said DI because it is getting boring saying ID all the time! :biggrin:

Again I find another bird that I do not recognize. Thrasher? Looks like a British thrush almost but the eye is wrong and it's a little smaller. And anyway we don't have many British thrushes here!

Shot in Fort Collins, Colorado in a natural area today. Sitting on a tree branch in a marsh area with reeds and cottonwoods etc.

Looks like a Sage Thrasher to me Bill.

Thanks Lia, here is a flying kingfisher for you. Darn these guys are hard to film, this is poor and just snatched. But they are wonderful to watch and so busy, and noisy!

Bill, thanks. And yes Kingfishers are wonderful to watch and hard to photograph!
