Wonderful shot, in all respects, Sid! I really like the simple but effective setting.

Thanks very much Mike, appreciated! :)

Lovely shot, Mark! Red kites are such beautiful looking raptors. This one is giving you quite an intense stare.

Thanks very much Mike!

This sharp, beautiful image is absolutely lovely, Jan!

Wow...this one's really a beauty, Bill!

Very nice two shot capture sequence, PinholeR5! That meal should satisfy him for awhile.

Lovely shot, Mark! Red kites are such beautiful looking raptors. This one is giving you quite an intense stare.

Wonderful close-up of this cormorant, fotoi! The sharpness and detail are spot on. And he stands out so nicely from the soft background colors. Excellent work!

You certainly have been posting some of the most beautiful shots, Sid! And this one is no exception! Your colorful shots all have wonderful separation from the buttery smooth backgrounds. I truly like them all.

This is such an outstanding capture, Paul! You cannot look at it, and not love it, and grin!

I love these bad hair days, Ed! They are such attractive shots! This one looks like it's having a tizzy fit! :lol:

Thank you, Mike.

Thanks Mike. I think I had accumulated 4.5-5 hours watching that fellow over a few days and finally, he caught something!

It's not usual for us in Maryland to see Ruddy Ducks in breeding colors so this was a nice surprise.

This Great Crested Grebe spotted me, gave that over-the shoulder look, then sailed away into the distance!
