Very nice; I like how you got the tail of the target fish in the edge of the frame on that first one :)

Thanks for the comments, everyone. It was a truly magical day. I think these are possibly some of the best shots I have taken so far!!

They're wing tags for monitoring purposes. This practice has been changed to metal rings on the birds' legs.

Ahh, excuse my ignorance. I am aware about the metal rings on the legs but never heard about wing tags. I was thinking it could be a pet :P

Beautiful photographs, and the first, especially, is an outright stunner.
