Title: "upper" Coquitlam River park :)

Anyone else find this is a great place to "hunt" for birds?

My fave of the set is the last bald eagle.

The first has that annoying piece of wood blocking the view, and the varied thrush could really stand to be cropped a LOT tighter.  the bird disappears in the tangle of grass and is so far over to the left.

I like the coop, but again - a closer crop would be a LOT more powerful.

Never been up that way shooting.  Looks like a nice area.

Yeah, the last eagle is the standout for sure.

If you ever want a good shot at a varied thrush, my property in Langley has 3-4 residents.  They are typically 5-10 feet away from my face when I work from my home office outside of my ground floor window.  They are very used to me.
