I think there's a Tern in there, possibly a Caspian

I see something in there, looks like a Tern

All that and not a fish to show for it!

    Awesome Steve clap.gifclap Which one of your haunts did you capture this sequence in?

    I left St. Augustine at 8:30 AM on thursday. I would have been home by about 8 PM but got side tracked when I saw a sign for a wildlife preserve in Georgia ne_nau.gif it actually wasn't very good at all as far as birds go but It involved driving on a 5 mile one way no exit road that produced only 1 GBH and 2 snowy egrets. Just before the exit I spotted a young Doe by he edge of one pond and spent about an hour with her so at least I had that. As a result I didn't get home till 11 PM. Next trip I'm going to look into the Auto Train>

    Still sorting through almost 2400 images and working up some mages to post.

    Hey Jack,

    This was at Key Vista Nature Park which is about 20 miles south of where we were. It's another good spot. I got two Bald Eagles, an Oystercatcher, Cooper's Hawk, Osprey (lots) and more.

    Looking forward to your posts.

    Steve

    Thanks! I meant for it not catching a fish, but made for some nice shots.
