To my surprise, these Caspian Terns made a stopover in the corn stubble near a cooling lake. I didn't expect their arrival so early.
I've photographed this Barred Owl many times, but who can resist when he chooses another roosting branch over his favorites.
This Eastern Meadowlark was singing just outside my drivers side window. His song stopped suddenly as I pulled beside him, but he did not flush.
The Northern Flickers are everywhere I go, digging for tasty morsels, but this one didn't mind his picture being taken.

Can I come to your house and go birding with you? I want to learn your secret for finding these wonderful birds!
Do you have room in the car for me too? Wow, I love the variety in this post and I sure would love to see and hear a meadowlark.
Hannibal - you do see the greatest potpourri of birds! All these photos were gorgeous - that owl was my favorite!!
This is a great collection of photos.
Three excelent images. How could you ever pass up taking pictures of owls, no matter how many times you've seen it!
