It's been a while since I've posted, not for lack of wanting but for lack of time. Still managed to do some shooting here and there. These shots are from a day I spent at a colleague's house in the Hamptons, which is way out on Long Island, NY on the ocean side. Hope you enjoy...Regards...Keith

The day started with fog and I decided to see what came out of the camera even though conditions were difficult - but I stumbled on an egret and got this...

Then the sun came out and it got more interesting...

Mr. egret came back, obligingly flying right towards me...

And I even got one of Harry's flips....

Mr. skimmer flew by...

and did his thing....

Even though they're winged rats, I liked this one of Mr. Seagull...

As it started to get dark, Mr. Cardinal appeared amid the dunes....

And then it was time to say good night (and good bye)...

    The pic of the black skimmer doing what it does best, skimming, is awesome!

    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!"
