It's Saturday somewhere so we can post from everywhere! Common or rare, pretty or not, let's see what you've got.

To post your pics, please reply to THIS post and change the title. Otherwise, in threaded mode, your post will appear to be a comment to another's post. We don't want to overlook your pics! Threaded mode lists posts in a hierarchy which is ideal for viewing threads like this one.

Try to limit pics to three or so and identify subjects if possible. It would be nice if you would provide location and other info others might find interesting. And do comment on others' pics if so moved. Everyone is welcome to participate with any camera, any time. Lurkers and new members please join in.

When out viewing and photographing wildlife, I want all of you to be safe. I also want the wildlife to remain safe and minimally impacted by our presence.

Very nice shots, Rodger!

Well composed and exposed.

Haven't really tried out the 4K photo on my FZ80 yet. It should be even easier than on the FZ1000, which I tried once.

Thanks for your comments ANAYV.
 
Very sharp looking images ANAYV. They have come out beautifully. I love the first one, as the red of the bird really stands out against the more sombre background.
 
It isn’t often I contribute to this thread, but I thought I would pull a couple from my shoot posted a couple of days ago.

This is Dave the Bateleur Eagle. Contemplating whether you would go down well with the peppercorn sauce.

Our breed of Robin here in the UK are a friendly bunch, always curious to know what you may be turning over in the compost heap.

I was looking through some old images taken with my FZ200 and thought I would share.

The one below was taken yesterday on my walk, with my Fuji XE-2.

Superb shots Filibuster. The plumage details are first class, plus great subject matter.

Three excellent shots Keith. They all look great and have excellent detail and colour. I really like the duck image.
 
Excellent captures and that top photo deserves a nice 16x20 print, gorgeous.

Great looking birds and shots. Sorry, but I can't help with the ID.
 
Great image of an interesting subject. They do like rather slimy and your shot shows that very well.
