    Ben,
    Nice job thumb.gifthumb.gif That 2nd to last one is killah clap.gifclap.gif


    I think Andy was envisioning a little Bar-B-Qued Egret (it tastes jus like chicken rolleyes1.gif ) with maybe a raspberry chipolte sauce :lol


    Again, love that 2nd to last one thumb.gif

    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 bad, not bad at all.

    How do you build those egret ponds? I am getting jealous. Wet lands, ponds, rookerys where you can get close.

    Great series. That one shot is special, but some of the others are, too, IMO. Either that or it is the story leading up to that great success of a (yuch) fish.
    And the closeness of the bird (or the length of the lens)

    After all is said and done, it is the sweet tea.

    Don't know how to build a pond ne_nau.gif
    The birds do let me get quite close but a 400mm + lens don't hurt either :D

    Hi ya Jeff , thanks glad you like thumb.gif
    That guy kept dropping and picking up the same fish looked like he was washing it :lol4
    I got real lucky walk in the middle of a kinda food frenzy, birds were catching and fighting over fish everywhere it seemed. Sure wish my camera was faster, or me :D
