There's nothing quite like the Roseate Spoonbill... stunningly beautiful with its own brand of quirkiness.

I happened to capture this shot in just the right circumstances - with a dark background on the far bank of the Ameca River, and sunlight hitting this Snowy Egret at just the right angle.

Like a seasoned pilot on final approach, a Brown Pelican banks sharply right before lining up for a smooth touchdown along the shores of Banderas Bay in Nuevo Nayarit.

We were fortunate enough to encounter Blue Grosbeaks in Mexico. They're beautiful birds, but like to keep their distance. I had to admire this one from afar.

I just love the vibrant red of vermilion flycatchers! They're easy to spot but tough to get close enough for a clear shot because they're a bit skittish. I think this photo turned out pretty nice!
