 I saw these birds sitting on top of an empty old house in my neighborhood. They were squaking at each other but by the time I took the picture they must have made up.

Too bad this didn't do better. I really liked it quite a lot. I guess the birds were too scruffy for most tastes. Well, I gave it a 7.

I like this nature shot. It is refreshingly different from the plethora of nature photos on this forum. Some might complain about a little bit of fuzzines but I say, "Who cares?" The viewpoint works and the starkness enhances the otherwise homeliness of these birds (are they grackles? it's hard to tell from this angle).

They look so "above it all". Great catch with perfect clarity.
