Out and about in the world today... The eagles seem to be be thinning out and it was tough finding critters, except for the one that went floating by on the CT river...
Comments welcome

1 -Crash landing. Shot this with the ol D300... It sure tracks well through the branches

5 I have occasionally seen a seal poke it's head up like maybe 3 times. This Seal was just riding along on this ice for a really long time, just floating on the outgoing tide... Very heavy crop, close to 100% I think..

Great shots as always Kris. Can you send some of that good light up this way !!!!!

Those hoodies must like you, I can never seem to get within 50 yards of them.

Every time I look out the window it's snowing, like right now. Today is the start of my vacation so I'll wait for it to stop before I hear out, hopefully the snowies are still around.

Too bad you live so far away, I'm off a few extra days as well. Tomorrow looks good, then wed/thurs look like crap I have to wait quite awhile for the hoodies to swim by...

Thanks! It flies so slow with those stubby wings, makes it much easier to catch
