These birds are so cool looking... beautiful light and setting for these Tim, love the last shot showing your personal outdoor studio.
Nothing feels better than getting fantastic images like these because you have put in the time and effort that you described in the intro... very rewarding and wildlife photography truly at it's best.
3, 5, and 9 are my favorites, very tough to single out images in this great set.
Keep 'em coming buddy.

Alcid heaven Tim! I really like #3. That bit seems to be taunting you. Your effort has paid off, to our delight.

Wow! Tim, these are the best-looking pigeon images I've ever seen.
Oh, sorry... pigeon guillemots .
Those bright-red feet and legs are a special treat, especially when they come in for a skid-landing on the water.

Glad you like the squab Charlie, careful I'll serve it to you with peanut gallery sauce next time

Thanks Charlie, I'll post some of their belly flop landing style in the future, I just love to watch them do that, especially on dry land!

Great set Tim...and the dedication to go with it, probably the only way these come about. I really like the courtship display shots, and #9 as well, but all are pretty special.

More wonderful images of one of my favorite seabirds Tim. I couldn't pick a favorite, but the ones with the birds on the sand are really great!

Tim,
These are amazing. I love the light on these birds... the warm glow on the black plumage is just stunning. The fourth shot is sooo beautiful... makes me wish I took it!

The process of your effort really strikes at the heart of wildlife photography. It is as much about getting there and being there as it is about the final image. To me, there is nothing like a 4:00 am wake up and hike to a destination. The photos are the tangible rewards for our persistence, but as good as they are, the photos will always be secondary to the

These are excellent Tim and it sounds like the perfect way to spend the morning to me. Well, all except that moment when the alarm goes off at 4am. Keep them coming.

"So hot shot, expose this!"
Of course you did

Smokin set yet again of this captivating bird Tim. One of these upcoming seasons I gotta get down there with you!
Great representation of poses and your exposures all rock!
I was picking #4 as favorite in set for the uniqueness of the shot until Karl said he saw a face on the Butt

Picking that one anyway

Love the set bro and I hope to see more from this wonderful piece of beach!

Tom




Thanks for the thoughtful comment Bro! A face in the butt, where is Nello when you need him

Thanks Ken! I'm somewhat partial to Alcids, they are fun birds in their oddness.
