Struttin' his Stuff














CHECKERED PIGEON [courting ritual]
photo taken: Lakeview Park Corpus Christi Texas



Since the departure of the online meme of World Bird Wednesday, I would like to continue viewing your bird photos, ...so, please, if you would care to join me, I've added a Link Tool below and will every Sunday [central time zone USA]!!! We can all still continue to be a goodly part of the super birders out there in blogland and enjoy each others' magnificent birds...be they backyard birds or part of the wonderful world of birds while touring the immense population of bird sanctuaries, raptors, in the field...or on birding trails....Take time to add your text link and I will visit. I've also made a button called "the BIRD D'Pot" [pronounced depot] ---a acronym of sorts pertaining to Bird Digital PhOTgraphy. If you'd care to join me, grab the image and link from the text area and add it to your blog/photo post. Check on my sidebar; here's where you pick it up. Just copy the text in the text area with the pale yellow background and paste it on your bird photo blog post...it will automatically add the button and the link, directing anyone who wants to participate back to here to add their link.

    Hi Anni, My dog has an agility trial today and I won't be able to pull anything together until tonight, but I welcome your offer of a new bird photography meme. I love your pigeons ... great shots and good choice of birds. Have to run, but will be back (I am following you now) ... Thanks for stopping by.

    I've linked up. I like taking pictures of birds, but it isn't easy. Most of mine are really bad unless they are at my feeders in the back. Hopefully I can link up each week. I'm glad you have started this meme. I didn't link up a lot to World Bird, but enjoyed visiting the posts. Love your pigeons.

      ...it's great to see you here. I don't think the quality is all that important, it's the sharing of the photos and what birds you find that counts. Glad you stopped by.

    Thanks so much for hosting this new meme! I do expect to see many of our old friends from WBW gathering here, and I wish you the best of luck. Hope you don't mind, but my primitive blog software limits the size of my side panel, so I had to reduce the badge a bit to make it fit.

    Better late than never ... I have joined your meme and look forward to watching it grow. I already commented on your wonderful pigeon pictures. I love pigeons (as in reality they are doves) even though, like geese, they can be messy. Great birds in any case ...

    Super Anni! Thanks for starting the new bird meme. I don't know what I'd do without one ;-)

    The iridescence of the pigeon's plumage always amazes me. Nice shots of this pair struttin' their stuff!
