These were taken Friday at the Oceanside Marine Nature Study Area on Long Island, NY. The willet was standing on one of the new boardwalks and it's the background of the first. I was able to get very close to this bird and after I took quite a few photos it blasted off and then flew directly at me a few times. Next it settled on the stick you see in the photos. The first photos are hand held, the ones on the branch on the tripod.

Will it or won't it Morris. That is the question. I dunno? #1 is my favorite for the light.
