Beautiful work, Kurt!
I like the light on the bird and barbed wire perch in #1. #2 is a beautiful portrait of a chilly looking bird.
And then there's #3...fantastic catch! Your wildlife work is superb, my friend.
I really appreciate you sharing these here with us!

Kurt, You are just the best. I love meadowlarks and that third image is superb. Great work and thanks for sharing.

Very nice Kurt! I love these mullein perches you've found. They really add character to the photo as well as a natural perch

These are all great Kurt, but I really like the Lark in flight shot. Spot on focus and shutter speed, that's no easy task!.

Hey Kurt- Love your catch of the meadowlark and the snow flying! Looks like it was cold that morning. Were you wearing your shorts and flip flops? Just remember our first meeting at Georgetown when it was cold and the wind was howling and you were dressed in shorts!

Preference to #1 with its lighting and sharpness. Possibly crop off the left barb on the wire.
Nice timing with the meadowlark.
