Every once in a while I score a really good wildlife photo, usually but not exclusively birds. I’ll post the best of them here for general consumption.

My husband Jim actually took these two, with his new digital camera:

Now, these hummingbirds I took with my new 300MM lens.  They do love the Mexican sage in the front yard.

These 2 shots were  taken on the Merced River, Yosemite, Nov. 1999.  They show a small duck, a female common merganser, eating (and then, I assume, digesting) a 6-inch trout:
