Note: photos of the tern, lapwing, mockingbird, and avocet were taken at Pirates Beach, Galveston. The rest were taken in my actual yard.

These photos are fantastic, I love how you have taken so many clear and close-up shots!
The ones with the water are amazing, and so is the angle you have taken with the monkey up the tree!

You must have the most wonderful backyard in the world

Thanks for sharing these great photos

Very good photos Birdsage, the avocet and lapwing look especially good
