When #4 was scrolling up........ all I could think of was Phyllis Diller

You might know nuthin' about birrds, but you sure know how to shoot them. Well done.

#4 looks like an outcast. :thumbup:

Great shots! I think I can ID some of them (correct me if I'm wrong):

1. Common Moorhen
2 & 3 (are they the same bird?) 3 is a green heron, not sure of 2.
4 & 5. Great blue heron
6. Don't know but it's beautiful!
7. I think may be a little blue heron

I'd love to get some shots as good as yours!

 

[Jeff Canes]

thanks all, and I think/knowchirs is right with the names

four is a stunner

 

[surfingfireman]

cool set of shots, especially since the latest issue of Outdoor Photography I read had an article on Heron rookeries in Florida.

#6 is an anhinga. kind of like cormorant but in the darter family
#7 I believe is a tricolored heron.

(don't worry I cheated and looked in my bird book)

Jeff, you got some wonderful shots here! Love the colours. My faves are 2, 3 and 6. Not that there's anything wrong with the others.
