This is the first time that I have photographed any GBHs. It was a very grey/overcast sky. I did some post in RAW and CS4. They also have been cropped.
Thanks for looking. Any C&C is welcome.

I am continually amazed at the range of these birds. Had a great time watching a pair of GBH's nesting and "cavorting" in S. Texas this past winter. Wonder if they breed twice a year? I didn't see any young, so maybe they were just "dating". I can look at these beautiful birds year around so thanks for sharing. Nice captures!

Ed, the AYES have it. Good work.


Have plenty of Canons, enough ammo, enough to blow 'em to "L". Now, I just have to learn to aim.
