It's interesting to see eagle love. They usually look so angry and aggressive. But not when they are caring for their young.

Very true, Ed.

Thanks. I didn't realized what they were doing till I got home and looked at the pics. Common behavior this time of year though. Back home a few days later I got their cousin doing the same thing.

Great egret. I wanted to make the reeds 'pop' to give it a different feel, so I pretty much left the exposure alone and increased the sat., the vib., and the white a little but I increased the black so that everything would stand out more.
Not intended to make it look realistic.

Thanks Mike. I agree they are quite attractive, but not always very cooperative subjects. Sometimes I think it’s intentional:lol:.
