    Excellent series and what a variety. I really like the fact that you caught the brown pelican right at the end of its dive. I tried several times to catch this and mine didn't turn out as well as yours. thumb.gif The green heron and tern with fish are very nicely done as well.

    Nice series Socrate. I often see ospreys perched on boat masts and outriggers in this area. Kind of funny the "fisherbird" follows the "fisherman" around. rolleyes1.gif Keep 'em coming.
