Tiny Life at Tiny Marsh

[BrentC]

Sorry for the pic heavy thread. All these shots were taken the same day at Tiny Marsh and thought I would dedicate a thread to it. If someone can identify some of these let me know.

All the shots were taken with Oly 300mm+MC-14 and Oly 60mm Macro. Better with original image.

First your correcting me on birds now insects. I was talking to another photographer I met at the marsh who seemed to know quite a bit about insects and showed him this shot. He thought it was a dragonfly just out of the nymph stage. Maybe he didn't get a good look from my lcd screen. You are definitely correct.
