Here are 2 pics of two birds that came over to me and checked me out for a while. I was out watching a storm brew over the Gulf of Mexico. My first picture post here. C & C welcome. Taken with canon t2i and canon 70-200 f2.8L IS USM

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    I did too. The dang bird came walking up the pier to within a few feet from me. I thought I was about to get a beak to the leg.
