    Nice shots. I really like the pelican one.

    And Harry says you have to be in Florida to get a variety of birds... HA!

    Hey, Florida might help but we do have birds here in UK too...
    This is a baby falcon of 15 weeks old, raised by one of the people in the Thorpe Perow Arboretum, it was hot here sunday in UK, and the little thing was hungry and warm


    I like your duck... It looks so compact and peaceful. Love his colors.
    I wonder if you really need a 600mm to shoot birds that close... The pelican is my second favprite. The form of the beek is nice.

    The pelican is great, very sharp and good post treatment.

    Don't you just love those Kookaburra's......I love listening to them, and if your lucky enough to get a few of them going at the same time, it's an amazing sound isn't it.

    Lovely Series.......thanks for sharing...... Skippy (Australia)

    Yes....some nice birdy shots. I also like the pelican. Perhaps I'm a bit biased towards my neighbors. :D

    Good job!
