Hunter, very nice images. I like the Pelican one the best of the bunch.

Always nice Hunter.
I am in Clearwater. Are you going to a preserve or just the beaches? I have been scouting out my parks here but not seeing as many birds as had hoped.
I only have the 55-300 so my reach isn't great.

I think I just found your name as having sighted birds at Key Vista park!
Are there good vantage points there for my 55-300?

All very nice, but the RWBB stands out for me. Catching one that close in flight would be a real coup for me.

The Pelican above was shot at Key Vista. Key Vista would be a great place to go with 300mm lens. You do have to learn how to stalk and approach to get as close as possible. Up until recently I've always been shooting with 300mm.
