Unusual setting for a pelican picture.

This is an owl that has taken over a ospreys nest and claimed it for itself. I am several hundred feet away shooting at 600mm on my DX camera, handheld and I am in a moving boat, which made this shot very challenging.

Red Tail Hawk shot taken from a boat at 600mm on DX camera, handheld. It was tough getting that single focus point on just his face while moving in the boat.

A pair of osprey watching over their nest. Another shot from the boat trip. Second shot is an enlargement of the osprey at the top. Tamron 150-600mm lens was used.

Nice shooting Jeff. Was it a private boat? Looks like you had a nice day.

It was a 2hr tour but we ended up being out for about three hours. I enjoyed the ride but didn't see a whole lot.

This is an osprey nest that an owl decided to make it's home. This was taken from several hundred feet away while in the tour boat. We almost didn't see it because the only thing visible was the top of it's head.

A two hour tour... Hope the Captain and Gilligan weren't on board.

One piece of fish and so many hungry mouths to feed!

One piece of fish and four pelicans. If you look at the pelican just above my water mark and the three pelicans in front of him, they all have a hold on the same piece of fish!

 

[grandpaw]

Not a romantic kiss, but there is some passion shared for the same piece of fish!!!
