The ruddies look so adorable from a distance Morris. Makes me want to go to my lake and look for them again!

Love the light in #4. I might suggest you crop the bottom and turn it into a panorama format to highlight the birds and gorgeous BG light! Just a suggestion.

It must be winter, the brants are back. I think I'll wait for the snowies.

Yes they are and it is getting cold. We already have about 50 snow geese and I too am looking forward to the snowy owls. There has been a consistent sighting of one about 100 yards off the shore from Bayone. I'll wait for them to show up on my beaches so I can get closer
