Absolutely gorgeous shots, I can't pick a favorite as they are all great. I've spent two months working on getting some shots of these birds. Closest I've got is a hundred yards or so, maybe in the future.

Thank's Fred.................they don't hang around when they see you, and they see great. I was lucky to get so close.

Ditto! Well done. Your wildlife captures are simply amazing. You get so close, I still suspect they must be on your payroll

Thank's michael, some times you have to think up different ways to beat their sences, like pulling up in a car and shooting out the window
