Great captures wildjob, very difficult to capture the first two, I know that they blend into the background, but you managed to get decent shots. The last one in out in the open and this one is excellent. Lovely blue water creating this lovely reflection. This is very nice work wildjob.

Thanks Jake for viewing and commenting. You are right the first two are the hardest to capture besided blending into background, they are vary wary and on the move as soon as they become aware of you. The rooster took flight right after this shot.
