I hate the bridge behind this guy but it was funny when he grabbed the puffer fish it blew up and scared him so he dropped it and then fish continued to float for a moment before escaping.

Beautiful shots. The heron and puffer shot is hilarious. What lens were you using?

Looks like it's working quite well for you! That heron shot is priceless :)

I am using a 300mm f4 L non-IS .....it is borrowed from a friend. I am looking forward to getting a 300mm f4 IS for myself I mainly want the IS version due to its closer minimum focal distance. I had some Ruddy Turnstones that kept getting too close yesterday

Wow, what an awesome collection. Funny shot of the Heron, but still amazing quality. Glad you explained what had happened.

There will be days when you get the shot(s) you missed days, months or years before.
