Hi Everyone,

I got this series on Labor Day. There was a big flock around
for a couple weeks but I haven't seen them now for a few
days. Maybe the hawks chased them off, cause they sure
were chasing them.

Hope you enjoy the photos..

    Hi Stephen, Dave and Glenn..

    Thanks for the comments on the Stilts. I have seen more and more hawks (and a Peregrine Falcon I just posted) around lately and all of a sudden the Stilts are gone (and so would I be, Laughing.gif).

    Thanks again !!

    Thanks for viewing Louie. I love to watch these guy fly just above the water, amazing that they don't have a major collision with each other, rolleyes1.gif .
