Now you are capturing expressive bird body language?

Pretty soon people will be say to you, "but Harry, these are birds, birds, not people. Don't think of them that way, they are not little people, etc."
They are already saying that to Corgi and Border Collie people, so be prepared.
Also, there are no cleaning women in the swamp, remember you are "people".
Where is that other behavior these feathery reptiles live for?

Great shots, great set, great copy!
Do we have a "bird" emoticon we could use for Harry?
Interesting series. I thought it might end like my fighting egrets
Ian
Of course. Snowy Egrets have very expressive body language. Ibises not so much and I'm not going to talk about the anhingas (very repressed bird).

Geeze, even with birds, it's always about the food......lol
Very nice series Harry, thanks for sharing them
Steve
I still think of them as birds. I know that the only two thing on their minds is eating and mating ,in that order (they do sound a lot like Andy don't they?).
as for a bird emotion for me I think the pelican below is pretty good. We are both just taking it easy (I'm retired you know).

Excellent captures! So fun to see what you saw! The snowy you captured here is just beautiful. I have not seen one around here that is fluffy like that one,,have you? I think today I got a wood stork. I'll post it when I get the chance..
holy #&$%*)@#&$%@)*#$& does this thing look sharp!
Not only that, exposure and contrast are looking really great... After this (lens, post-processing, shooting technique) upgrade, I can't wait to see more from you!
Thanks so much for sharing!
Take care!

Thanks and teh Snowy Egret was getting ready to duke it out. If the ibis ahd been a tad more agressive I might have gotten some even more interesting shots.

Thanks Steve. Birds just like Andy are very food oriented. If he ever gets down to Florida I think he will really connect with the local wildlife.

Wood Storks are strange looking birds but fun to shoot. If you want to get a fluffy snowy you want to shoot them n the morn when they are hunting. They spread their wings, fluff up, and get very expressive. They also get very aggressive and will try to chase away other smaller birds from the area they are feeding in.

I tell you, that Reznick workshop was a breakthrough for me. I've seen a definite improvement in my pics since that workshop.
Here's a link to my pbase gallery from the workshop http://www.pbase.com/hpb/reznick_workshop
