How he seems to be looking at his reflection in #1! Very cool.

I also like the reflection element in the turtle photo.

Sweetest of light you had! Of the flying bird photos I like the position in which you captured the bird in #7 best. Funny one.

But - of course! - they are all brilliant photos. All of them!

Wow Raymond, your bird pictures just keep getting better and better. All are good, but #1 is a framer.

 

[Digital Matt]

Great shots Ray. Is that first bird a species of Heron? It looks a bit like a green Heron, in size.

 

[Raymond J Barlow]

thanks everyone.. John E.. I really didn't like #1 too much, seems a bit soft.. I might try to re-edit it.. but thanks!

Matt.. these are Black Crowned Night Herons, except for the Caspian Turn, and the last, which is a GBH.

Wow! Ray, you have been doing some fine work. I have not chased birds in a long time. Maybe again after airshow season but the thought of those Night Herons are calling me.
