Excellent food exchange Herb. Looks like the sand was blowing in the wind. Not much fun being low in those conditions.

Lovely series and I agree that the low level sand blowing adds a bit of artistry to the images.

#3 is the winner for me Herb but this would be very cool to witness. Thanks for sharing your encounter and nice work at ground/sandstorm level

Very nice sequence, Herb. May be a bit more color noise reduction.

Unbelievable work! Documentation! Exciting to get this close to the interaction between parent and adult. Makes me want to run out, get the new Nikkor 800 5.6 and head for Florida!

Thanks a lot Morris. I'm not so sure it was blowing sand as much as it was me trying to focus through a sand dune in the foreground.

I had plenty of fun I assure you. I was kneeling down behind the lowered tripod for the low angle.
