Very nice. We've had some great light around here the past few weeks.

Love the Catbird for the sharpness and detail and because I've never seen one before.

Very nice series!

Thanks! Light has been pretty good lately.. I like the late sunrise, I can almost make it out there in time...
Catbirds are pretty common out here and relatively timid, they make pretty good subjects, but I have never captured this much detail before..

I don't think I could ever leave the coast! I'd have to change my screen name

Kris, great shots - that first one of the osprey and the fourth one of the catbird are just great. That GBH makes me want to start planning my Florida trip for 2014 very soon.
