Very cool stuff!

We have some nice stuff from Ridgefield (and all over the PNW region) in our PNW Thread -- have you checked it out?

What a wonderful group of captures woos.
I absolutely love the Bittern and the GBH, even if it is obligatory. ;)
The captions on the images of the coots are priceless too.
I'd have to assume the Tundras were shot early or late in the day w/the beautiful golden hour light on them. It makes that image just a little more special to me.

Really nice shots. I really like the Bittern. Nice personality to the shot and the detail is very good.

Like those, the Harrier is really nice lighting, and so is the GBH. that one is sort of moody looking.
