They are also digitally "watermarked" in addition to their visible copyright statements. This keeps transmission size down and helps limit copyright violations. The originals are high-resolution, and the file sizes range from around 2 Mb up. If you are interested in licensing any of these phtographs, please see our licensing page.
Want to use one of these photos as your desktop background? Just click on a thumbnail, then right-click the full-sized photo after it loads and choose "Set as Background" - that's all!
I use to catalogue my photography, perform fast and simple edits and create "contact sheets." I think it's the best choice for file management, too!

Eagleoptics.com is where I buy all my birding optics. They're fast, fair and have the best prices around. I'm using their Eagle Optics Ranger Platinum 10x50 binoculars. They've been through jungle, desert, and frozen glaciers and are like new! Try them for your next binoculars or spotting scope, you'll be glad you did!
All photos on this page were taken with Canon 10D and 20D digital SLRs - they're wonderful tools!
