Hi everyone,

Just a few of the photos I was lucky enough to get at our Carden Alvar trip. I'll keep adding to the album, so check back for more in a few days.

Beautiful photos, Amit. It seems as though the birds were posing for you!  Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. 

I've now uploaded the entire set from Carden Alvar to the same album (https://photos.app.goo.gl/2ffzaWo3AJyrfQKA9). Please take a look if you like.

Thank you everyone for making this trip special. And a special thanks to Colleen and Geordie for hosting us, showing us around the wonderful Carden Alvar, and finding all the birds!

Amazing shots Amit! Lovely bokeh on the Snipe and Brown Thrasher. 

I'd love to see the shot of the TV's on the crusty old shack.

Thanks Linda. Unfortunately, for the shot of the Turkey Vultures, I had accidentally disabled image stabilization, so they're all blurry. I'll see if I can find a good shot.

And I just found that sharing a Google Photos album removes all the captions! I've added them all back. Sorry about that.
