Snail Kite

[EricD]

Snail Kites are now nesting in The Kissimmee Area on Lake Toho. These pic's where taken from a boat....
These birds eat exclusively Apple Snails.

Some nice shots, Eric! Interesting raptor.. quite a beak on that bird!

Nice set. I really like the Male pics better as the backgrounds just add that little something. Guess I'm getting too use to all the photos of clear blue skies.

I'm impressed!

Nice shots love the colour of the light on the first one

perhaps your aperture is too few.
it would be better with more relief and blur in the background?
