Oh my goodness those barn owls.....:love:
 
That’s a really nice image and I honestly think the white sky makes it even better with the colors of the birds.
Thanks, Steven. It was early morning just before sunrise, with a heavy cloud cover. I had to crank up the exposure comp, resulting in the white sky. But that was the only time I managed to get a decent image of these amazing pigeons so I have to live with the white sky. I don't usually like such a sky, but as you say, it contrasts the birds nicely.

I agree, and I think sometimes the white sky actually enhances and accentuates the colors of a bird like this. Darker colored birds are harder to get away with but I think the same as looks fantastic.
 
Lot's of wonderful eyes above .. so skipping 2 of my favorites Double-crested Cormorant and Rocky Mountain Big Horn similar shots already done so some different ones.

Northern Hawk Owl, molting Wood Duck, before sunrise Great Blue Heron and a Ring-billed Gull.
