    female Yellow-breasted Antwren

    Horrible image but I only have 2 frames. I just realized Opus has no image of this species so I am reluctantly submitting it as "better than nothing". If you look at the settings for this image, no wonder it's not good. Although in my defense I had just finished a series of open sky...

    Burrowing Owl and Cassin's Kingbird

    Kingbirds are just plain tough guys. This Burrowing Owl had to land to keep a few of its tail feathers unscathed.

    Black-throated Magpie-jay

    Finally. There's a family of about 10 of this species living in the Tijuana River Valley, San Diego, CA. After trying dozens of time to photograph them, I finally did. Got them in every conceivable pose - like 300+ frames. Like this flyby shot.

    A new species for me. First time I got only 2 frames of this Spinetail and this is one of them. Half hour later I managed to find it again and took a little lingering time.

    No sulking from this wren. He jumped right out in the open to see me - well I think actually it was his mate he came to see. Troglodytes solstitialis solstitialis, San Isidros Lodge, East Andes, Ecuador

    Beautiful image. I forgot about the split of the Plain Wren. Just did a search to see if I had picked up another species -- alas, no.
