Wasn't that a FANTASTIC selection of bird photos????
WOW!
For those of you that don't take any kind of wildlife photos, please know that catching birds is one of the hardest photos to get. Not only are they skiddish, but it is hard to get a clear shot or a closeup shot of them. I admire every-one-of-you-that-entered's talent!
Thank you so much for entering!!
If you entered the July contest, and I accidentally forgot to include your entry photo in this blogpost, please notify me IMMEDIATELY so I can repost this blogpost. It happens, as much as I try to get everybody that sent me an entry included each month. If I don't hear from you by Friday, the contest will stand "as is". Thanks.

And as for August theme is considered isnt it a bit too big, I mean one of river, lake or pond night have sufficed... Only a personal they though, will send my entry in a couple of days...

gorgeous, each and every one!!! i am so proud to see my photo here. can i blog about this and add a link?? let me know!!
amazing, good luck everyone.
now i am off to start some water photo's!!!
so glad i am not a judge, these are really great and such a variety. lots of sweeties here today
those are all beautiful. some of them are absolutely stunning! thanks for sharing them!
They are all fantstic, feww I couldnt just pick one ! Good luck to all and to all excellant photos !
Oh my, I love these. I know exactly how hard it is to get good shots of birds. I'm especially fond of DJan's capture of a hovering hummingbird, and I like the lovely colors in Debbie's chickadee photo.
To clarify the August theme for photo entries...you can enter a picture of EITHER a lake scene, river scene OR a creek scene...!! You don't have to enter a photo showing ALL of them.
I just didn't get it together to send a pic to you, but based on these others, mine wouldn't have won, but I guess that isn't the point. I may just send it when I find it anyway, just for fun. We did get to see all four grand children the last two weeks, so that is where my time and energy went.
wow, tough job to pick a winner here
every month i try to pick the one...there are at least 7 i would struggle with determining which was the best...great shots...
That hummingbird shot is really good and so are all of the others! Wouldn't want to be a judge!
Thanks for reposting to add my birdie photo! I appreciate it!
All of these photos are just wonderful! Some made me laugh, some made me wish I could be IN the photo, some made me thing, "Boy, I wish I had taken that photo!" Good luck to everyone!
Great group of photos, Joan.. I love the Chickadee... That's an incredible picture of him... But some of the others are very good also. The hummingbird is precious!
Hugs,
Betsy
Wow! these entries are amazing! Such great shots, every one of them!
Okies:)
And my first comment just boomed, I guess...
So many errors, my apologies.
Happens sometimes when commenting from my mobile..
Everyone did great..bird photos are not easy! I have been so busy, when things slow down I will enter again:)
Many great photos in this group!
Good luck to the judges...
So many talented photographers and so many great photos.....and I'm not even all that crazy about birds! :)
Oh wow, what an amazing assortment. The judges really have their work cut out for them this month.
Water! Got it! I will get a photo in for this month. Promise, making a note now. :)
Lovely pictures and awesome photography. Excellent work!!!
Each one of them is fabulous. I am glad I don't have to choose a winner.
I am very sorry, i thought i did not leave any question there unanswered. My blog is Andrea in this Lifetime, http://www.abagillon.blogspot.com. The photo of the two nestlings with lighted throats is mine. Thanks and very sorry...Andrea
now that is an awesome shot of a big black crow.
Pat H's crow is a great edition. Not to be missed!
I certainly enjoyed these. Thanks for sharing!
These are all great! Good luck picking a winner! :):)
All beautiful, but I liked Linda's letters the best.
Actually Daryl E is a woman not a man ...
This post was just beautiful! Loved them all, but the crow always gets me -- such a smart, tough bird...
Pearl
That's a great bunch of birdies!
Oh my goodness what a stunning collection of entries, one again thanks for organising this competition. I do not envy the judges having to decide from these which is best! May I also ask if you would list me as LindyLouMac, thanks. :)
Wow.. these are lovely. And wouldn't you know it.. two of them are by two of my favourite bloggers.. DJan and Daryl.
