Good shooting.

Thanks Don, Roy and Lawrence! We named him Ozzie, yes his mate is Harriet. I don't know which is which, but they're always on one of those three poles.

Thank you Michael. I keep getting closer and closer to him without annoying him.

Wood Stork along a canal bank. Couldn't figure out what was in front of him, then I realized it was his feet.

I tried to hide behind a tree, but he spotted me

Other side

Perfect timing on these Blue Teal Ducks

I actually got a lift off that isn't a blur!!

Nice bird shots Marilynne. All our lakes are now frozen over and all the birds are gone. Most of them are hanging out in the farmers corn fields picking the leftovers and getting water from the streams. Time for a few warm days to thaw thing out.

 

[Marilynne]

Thanks Alan. I seem to be able to get closer to them lately. I think the cooler weather is numbing them.

Palm Warbler - highly cropped - seems like everything I shot yesterday was tiny and way up high

Love the Gnatcatcher....Great shot.

 

[Marilynne]

Thanks Alan, the palm warbler, the gnatcatcher and a black and white warbler were all over that live oak. When they were close, they were behind a leaf. They were hard to catch.
