First of all, C&C is appreciated! Just note that some of these pictures required some effort to take, as my lenses require me to get quite close for pictures.
I went down to Bolsa Chica wetlands the other day and there was this egret that I was literally 3 yards from...
at first it was giving me this "what the hell are you doing?" look as I tried to crawl slowly to approach it.
On a side note, I'm saving up for that 70-200, but in the meantime I'm going to have to use the poor man's zoom, aka commando crawl. The guys fishing there must have thought I was insane.
Right when I got about to shooting distance and started trying to fix the exposure on it's damn white body it decided to go somewhere else. But I did get a pretty decent picture with only a little bit of blown highlights!
Also, we spotted this beetle -- it's a stinkbug and it didn't seem to like us very much.
A few more random pictures:
A random gate in the middle of the reserve (I guess the land next to the reserve is private property)
A picture of a heron my friend took -- it was with a point and shoot, in shadows, in low light so I rescued it on photoshop the best I could...
