    Brandt's Cormorant (Phalacrocorax penucillatus)

    Believe it or not, this was taken around 12:30 pm. The morning was overcast and then the sun came out around lunch time. I think the angle of the fall sun and the tide really adds to an image. Deka

    Thank you Debbie. A fall mid-day shot. Not the best time to be out with the camera but the best time to catch the birds. LOL Deka

    Brandt's Cormorant (Phalacrocorax penucillatus)

    Well Fudge! Mac's Field Guide is wrong! Being dependent upon identification guides, it makes me wrong as well. So sorry! I'm getting the reputation of the 'mis-identifications'. Hopefully, others can learn from my mistakes. LOL Sometimes the best way to learn is to make a mistake. Deka

    Window Watching - Birds Visiting My Gardens

    Debbie, On page 6 of the thread there are some pictures of yours. One of them is of a round 'cage' that has large pieces of nut meat. If you don't mind, where did you get that from? I think that type of 'cage' would keep some of my pests from getting large free meals. LOL Thank you in...

    Brandt's Cormorant (Phalacrocorax penucillatus)

    A Cormorant and I don't know which one! LOL I welcome the warming sun. I believe that this is a juvenile, but I could be wrong. LOL The feather structure under the wings is very interesting. Deka Edited to be funny and make fun of my inability to correctly identify birds! LOL...

    Peregrine Falcon

    The 2nd shot is piercing. I feel like I'm the prey with no where to hide.

    #3 is pretty close to a hinney pinch! Possibly an adult and a juvenile? 'Where's my lunch Mom!'

    The Bald Eagles have been missing for the last 3 weeks. I'm not sure if this one is from the family unit but it was nice to see a Bald Eagle again. CC is welcome.

    Great Blue Heron

    Watching these birds is such a pleasure. Me, myself and my reflection. I like this one because of the colors and the visual interest of the barnacle encrusted blocks. Over my shadow. CC is welcome.

    Greater Yellowlegs

    I had some help. LOL I set up about 50 feet from an observation platform. My husband and a visitor with his dog stayed on the platform and kept the birds over in my area. I stayed as still as possible and let them do their thing. Remote shutter release so I didn't move too much. Next...

    2014 Swan Island Dahlias

    Ok - Where is the LIKE button? Never mind, I'd probably break it by hitting it too many times. Wonderful shots! Deka

    Is this pose ok?

    From one of Joe Meche's pointers from Saturday. Patience and...... From one of Paul Bannick's pointers from Saturday. Let the birds come to you. There was so much information that was shared, it will take time to absorb it all and make it a habit when out shooting. Over time...

    Can I eat it?

    Like you, I like to show the environment. An 'art' photo does not relate to the true world that a creature lives in. (If I ever go pro-am, I don't expect to gain much $$$. LOL) Capturing nature in its 'real' world is why I enjoy my hobby. (So looking forward to this coming Saturday!)

    A young pied-billed grebe eyeing a dragonfly. Cropping could be closer. Given the cropping issue, CC is welcome.
