Wham on those first three Ms Mag B First one is oh so soothing, #2 great work with simple elements and color and comp. That's a nice Greenie, have not seen too many those lately!
What the heck, a GBH wearing bloomers, love it a bunch, too cool Nice in-flights, I like the bank shot That looks like a close encounter with a KF, lucky you Great griebe! Oh sure, we all find Bald Eagles just haning out on someones roof, right and very very cool.

Hi Karl You're so good about critiquing every image and you always do it with class. I love reading your comments Apparently you weren't aware that here in the Pacific NW, our Herons always wear bloomers - they're very modest And if you don't believe that, then you should definitely believe that every home has at least two bald eagles perched on the roof. Thanks for your wonderful critique

Siamese twin eagles, wow, that's a first.
Lovely set Maggie, I had forgotten your style. Subtle, soft and sweet to the eye well except for 4 that one is just plain wacky. (I think I know that rock)
2 looks like feeding through the looking glass.
Great set!!
Tim
Are you saying you don't have bald eagles on your roof? Thank you for your very kind comments, Tim. You rock, and yes, you know that rock The looking glass image was taken on Whidbey

Maggie,
Very nice series!
How'd you get so close and bribe that KF to pose for you? Hard to pick a favorite from them as they are all very good. Well, OK maybe except the BG on the Grebe (I think its an Eared Grebe).
My favorite would have to be betweeen the Greenie and the sandpipers. The later is just super; the BG, lighting and composition give the image a special sense of tranquility. I love what you done with the lowly coots. Great eye on that one - its telling a story. Great perspective on that GBH landing too.
Hi Jay Bribing the Kingfisher was easy - just pulled a few slimey little fish from my pocket and voila! Actually, the KFs are very hefty crops but still, I was closer than the usual. I *love* the Grebe background! Obviously, you have no taste Well, except for your very nice comments about the rest. Thanks much, Jay - always appreciated

WOW how did I missed this thread? Amazing shots Maggie how did you got so close to the KF? hey I recognize that greenie...it's the 1 near the UW
Because you weren't looking Just a thought Thanks, Nello. Yep, that's your greenie, alright. About your comment on Jay's thread: I should not rent a canoe at the boat house because I might tip it over. Wouldn't be the first time.

Brilliant series, I never thought I'd see a shot of a pair of eagles on a roof. Clarity and composition are nothing less than brilliant.
Thank you very much I don't know where you're from, but if you come to the Pacific Northwest, you just might find a pair of eagles on a roof.
First one is oh so soothing, #2 great work with simple elements and color and comp. That's a nice Greenie, have not seen too many those lately!
