Camera Critters #39

Camera Critters by Misty Dawn, go here to see who's participating.

2009 is here and I'm still looking back to some shots I really enjoyed.This is my favorite Canadian Goose photo. I dedicated to Michele and continue to hope for her health to improve.
This photo is my favorite Cooper's Hawk.
This Cardinal is was in my back yard.
This Blue Jay was in my front yard.
This is for Abe Lincoln and I wish him the best of health. He has a wonderful bird site. I am offering him my favorite bird the Great Blue Heron in a reflective shot from Lake Hodgson.
Here is a Cedar Waxwing I found at work.
This is an American Goldfinch from my back yard.
This Killdeer is from a small lake.
If you leave comments on my site I truly enjoy the visits from you and try to return visits to you. Thanks misty for hosting Camera Critters.

    Great pictures, Tom. It's nice that you dedicated one to both Abe and Michele.

    We still don't have any Cedar Waxwings nor Killdeer here--or at least I haven't seen any. Beautiful birds.
