Beautiful as usually Jody! And, surprise!! I can actually see all the images!! Love the 1st one, moon looks really great, and all the birds are amazing. You really need to share you shooting techniques Jody!

Those are all fantastic! I'm green over the kingfishers.

Beautifuk shots as per your norm

Ric Grupe

All terrific ...but I am particularly jealous of this shot.



I've been trying to get a good capture of one of these guys for three weeks now...nada!:cry

bfjr

nice series

mr peas

very.. extremely nicely done (i dont think ive ever used that many adjectives before). i love the last shot the most, great shutter play. and that moon shot, very subtle, has a nice mood to it.

may i ask what lens you used to shoot the birds and how far you were (approx. of course)? they're nice crops.

traunerk

always enjoy your shots Jody...what lenses are you using...

All are great shots but I especially like the Flicker taking off!

Great shots. The first shot of the hawk almost looks like a flash was used. I am guessing it was a setting or rising sun? Great work.
