Beautiful set Dorian. Love the first shot , that bubble really adds to it.

Birdie



thanks birdie. i like that he's looking right at it. normally stuff like this is distracting, but in this case i think it works.

I really like your first image here Dorian, very nice portrait of this bird.

Paul.


thanks paul. these guys are normally really skittish so i was shocked that this guy let me orbit around him for a full hour as he fed.

These are very nice images, Dorian; all the more impressive for the IDs, explanations, and examples. (I went back to look at your "leucistic shorebird" post--no spotted peep to be seen there)!

Greg



thanks greg. shorebirds are kind-of my speciality. we have lots of them move through mass. i really enjoy the challenge of id'ing them. i also really like getting dirty to approach them. they will always tolerate you if you crawl and move slowly.

Charles



thanks charles. i think he way too busy eating those black dots (whatever they were) on the lily pad to go after the bubble!
