Photographers, there are quite a few birders 'round these parts and having a front page header to represent (and celebrate) the many here patient enough to hide (and wait... and wait... and wait...) until a bird arrives to take it's picture is practically mandatory.  The results have been wonderfully varied and the patience required alone proves it takes talent to produce those images.

There are already a few bird images in the pool so this one is part way complete.  The deadline is whenever Mal has enough photos (about seven) from as many people to finish it.  Old or new.  It don't matter.

This a ongoing project that Mal explains here and, for ease of all, utilizes this Flickr Pool.  Photographs may also be emailed to photographers.newsvine.com@gmail.com.  If just signing up with Flickr, you can connect with other Photographers here.
