A few BIF's from Today

bfjr

Most excellent morning today. Wheather, freindship, and a few keepers I think to share. My little (yes I can say that now ) FZ did not disappoint. I told her that when big brother comes home that I would not kick her to the curb, especially after her performance today!!

Bottom Pelican to top Pelican, get in formation



Move it buddy I'm coming in


I know I clip his wing Grrrrrr

Did you hear me. I said move it



Ahhh some water action and reflection :thumb

I did egrets again today, too. Just had to say that.

Worked up the herons, put up a night heron, it is very good, IMO, but I am not saying that in the subj again, so it will probably be ignored.

I love your captures!! Fantastic, better and better, with the same good copy, move your a##, I saw that today, usually behind branches, white sticking out here and there, branches moving, squawking going on............very difficult to capture, especially when I was out of memory and a GBH showed up in petting distance.

Wild. And, hey, I was quite alone........my husband only had today off, so he didn't want to go............when I walked out of that place at 8 PM, I had my cell in one hand and my camera in the other (pretending that there was memory and if I were assailed I would get a photo).

Anyway, love your photos. Did both of you go to the mysterious Getty?

I was just thinking about that Egrets not freindly thing, in reference to how well the 3 of us get along and that guy who came to a screeching halt on PCH just to apologizes to us. Powerful pieces of technology those cameras we carry in many many ways
By the By your PM is full ??

Hey Phil
I'm glad you said that about could use more work in post. Yeah I kinda rushed these yesterday so I could put them up.
So I see they could use more post work and I need to slow down a bit

Hey Ben,

Your shots just keep getting better. The second and last shots are marvelous.

I can't wait to see what you do with your new camera.
