The little bugger landed above our heads behind the willow branches. I was lucky to get one in
focus but this was a typical one. The more I look at it though the more I like it.:rofl

Hello,

The leaf in front of the head doesn't do it for me. Probably would have a neat feel otherwise.

Not trying to be too critical - just what I think of it - ymmv.

Allen,
Remind me too send you my bird lasso. Hey is there water near where this fellow hangs out? If so, go buy some frozen smelts, tie one to the fishing pole, and give it a toss out in the water, get the camera ready...give the line a couple of twitches, and BAM!! a photo opportunity. Iceman and I did this last spring with the owls believe it or not with one of my cats fake mice, and a casting rod.Even though they didnt swoop down to grab it...they sure picked up on it and it was there total attention for minutes on end. Sure glad no one seen us trolling it behind my truck down the dirt country roads!! lmao
Sorry for the long winded post.

Cheers, Tony

If you look close at the one in focus here (3rd shot) the leaf has magicaly disappeared. I left it
in this one because it's part of the foreground branch in focus. I would normanly delete this
but thought it had some merit, very little but interesting.:D Probably should have titled it "Ghost
in the Background".
Appreciate your honest opinion.

Allen,

That looks like many of my kingfisher efforts.

Even though the KF is out of Focus and there is a leaf in the way it still
has great imagery IMO .
