Finally got out the swamp again after a too long absence.
Saw and took pics of lots of birds but this sequence of a juvie Tri-colored heron were the only ones that i felt came out FM worthy.





















mamma moorhen was also out with the little ones


On the way back i was surprised by this meanie cottonmouth who didn't want to share the trail at all! After snapping a few pics at a safe distance i gave him a wide berth!
Being from NYC i'm still not used to having poisonous snakes being common place!

Very nice set ! 1,6, 8 and 10 are my favorites. Do be careful with those cotton mouths, I think the showing of the white mouth is a defensive posture. Good thing you gave it a wide berth, you may have been in the way of where it wanted to go. You got some nice shots of the snake. I think I would have been shaking too much

A nice set P. I like the herons shots and the snake shots too. 3, 4, 7, and 8 look like they could use a little more contrast ~ Ron

Rob, thanks for the tip, my post processing is a bit rusty these days.

These are all sharp. You might want to consider sharpening more and adding a touch of contrast to gain pop
