Birds and a landscape

ginger_55

Below, I don't know what this is, but I don't think it is good. There were a bunch of them playing in the sky.




A landscape, WITH a bird, honest! The bird is over on the left side, small, it is blue. (A little blue, and it was really a bright blue. I have other photos, such as I could get from the wrong side, but they just didn't look as good as this busier one with the trees on the right and all. g

Great shots Ginger. Like the Snowy Eget in and Heron in number 1

I'm pretty sure the bird in 2 is a Turkey Vulture but the head may not be red enough, but sure some type of vulture very unatractive on the ground but in flight they are impressive.

I do see the bird in 3 but with the beautiful colors and reflections in the rest odf the shot it was a while before I even looked

Thanks, that landscape was taken in one of the most beautiful areas. They are very tricky. I not only have to underexpose the photo, I then have to let it go very dark to work it up.

I have seen Harry's photos of turkey vultures, I thought maybe that was it, but I only saw it high up. I even climbed an observation tower to try to get higher myself.

Later, I have more, I always have more..................and I would like to go back. ASAP, as soon as my legs work again. Was there 6 hrs. That is a lot for me.

Hey Ginger....

When those turkey vultures are circling overhead.....better get up..and keep moving.

Well done. Like the landscape reflections. Not a bad TVIF either. I've got those things overhead all the time...but they are way too high to shoot with a 200mm.:cry
