I added a few more albums to my photo art galleries and here's a fun bird (puzzle) photo...
How many White-tailed Ptarmigans can you find in this picture?

Well Ken, I usually like this type of render puzzle, but I haven't a clue what a Ptarmigan looks like, so this may take a while, as I'm going to have to look them up.
Edited to Add: OK, found some examples at Wikipedia. Now I'll try and suss them out in your render.

I was exceptionally lucky to see the Ptarmigan, let alone photograph them, according to the park ranger (Mt. Rainier National Park). The white-tailed Ptarmigan are very shy, only reside at high elevations (usually 10,000') and are (as you can see for the photo) very well camouflaged.

They are really well camouflaged! I only spotted two!
I found two also. and a bunch of rocks.
There are 3 though, the third one is really hard to see-- partially because he's looking straight at you and less in focus. Follow the right Ptarmigan upward to the horizon to the rock with a beak that staring directly at you.
Here's another Asian bird-- the Eurasian Spoonbills. Spoonbills develop an orange breast patch and long crest off the back of the head during breeding season. The setting is Nerd3D's swamp (available here at Hivewire) with my Duck Pond water material added in place of the default water texture.

It's hard to get a good screen capture, but I tried!
@Ken Gilliland .... naw.... only 2... unless.... which "right"? when I look at the screen, I always think of right as ---> not the bird's right! LOL!! but you will have to circle it, I'm thinking!
Wonderful spoonbills!
@Flint_Hawk well I can't see babies, but still good screen capture!
