A flock of about 150 Evening Grosbeaks were reported not too long ago from Algonquin, so I had to go.

Perfectly exposed (see the white in the wing) and great detail when clicked on. I haven't had many of these at my feeder this year for some reason and I miss them. Gorgeous birds.

Such a lovely shot Karl. Nice eye contact and excellent details on the bird.

Karl the detail looks great here(really apparent in the larger file). Very nice frame filling shot.
Thanks for looking,

Beautiful and super sharp on the head. Interesting on how the body becomes softer. I really like it.
