Hi y'all,

You get to see the sunrise

the moon set
111181670-O.jpg

good for silhouette shots
111181372-L.jpg

nice light for the daily eagle shot
111181951-O.jpg

a great egret hunting
111181784-L.jpg

a GBH flipping
111181843-L.jpg

a night heron landing
111181799-L.jpg

as an added bonus the kingfisher (aka the devil bird) is not fully awake and you can get a shot of the buggger
111181775-L.jpg

enjoy early morning shooting
Harry

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!"

    Not to worry Mike, she has been following the same routine for a good while now and we also have the male eagle hanging around plus a juvenile showed up too.

    Thanks you Jen. The morning light is just about perfect to shoot in. It almost makes getting up early worth it. biggrinbounce2.gif
