Superb too!

That top one does it for me.

With images as exciting as these, I am at a loss for words. Perfect!

Both of these are amazing... there is a lot of talk about how the 200-500VR can not focus fast enough to capture birds in flight. While kittiwakes have a more "lethargic" gull-like flying behavior, the same is not true for alcids like razor bills and puffins. I think that your razorbill image is counter to the mythology that is often weaved about the inadequacies of this super-zoom.

As seems to always be the case, your images are masterful!
cheers,
bruce

Same genus, but cooperii. The females (like this one) are about twice as big as nisus.

You'll have so much fun. The weather is almost always good from now through September. I have every single detail thought out (no matter how small) and am always on the water at first light or at least at first direct light.

Then I just do it! Each day is different. Health issue has held me back just lately from getting out as much.

Glad to answer any question I may be able to....regarding the part of Maine you are going to.

Have fun.

Robert
