This is so gorgoeus. Your colour and detail on the bird is superb, as usual. Also, the background and reflections that mirror the colours of the bird make this a marvelous presentation. Beautiul.

What a remarkable shot. It's more interesting because he's so slow off the water (wheels up, I see.) I can't get over the look on his face and those yellow eyes.

Now this is totally Awesome!!!!! 10!!!! This site is so special, there are so many photographers that specialize in one area of photography and you my friend are the best at what you do. The clarity of this shot is amazing and it dosent even looked like you panned this shot, just set up and waited for him to fly by. Truly amazing!!!!!
Let me know when you will be holding class, I'll be the first to sign up!

Best Regards,

Joe

Dynamite! I assume you fired a quite a few shots as it flew by, I REALY like the one you posted with the wing tips just touch the water-rock line. Terrific work as always.

And once more the beautiful show-off male version will get most of the attention.
I notice he is back in the air again.

Hahaha I noticed that and was wondering why you had gone back to single posts.
Th UF Police can be pretty ruthless.
Hate to have a criminal record :)

Thanks David, I have to agree with you, I thought I would do all the static migritory birds in one post which I did, but I was informed that it was against the rules and I would be thrown in UF prison if I didnt remove the post, so i got the idea to show all the migritory birds one by one and they do nothing for me as I also need some action and movement in my shots.

Super cool shot Marcus.
Have to admit I'm not much on the static shots, but the inflight stuff gets me all excited every time :)
Definitely a 7 this time ;)
