Nicely done!

I have observed a pair of Peregrine Falcons that have nested at the Mississippi River bridge at Hannibal, Mo for a few years. Every once in a while I get the chance to photograph one. This is from last Friday morning.

Very nice shot, Cap'n! Good sharpness and detail.

Adorable shot, Paul! Glad to see that he's eating his greens.

Beautiful shot of the mallard drake, Jimmy! You'd think their feet would get cold standing on the ice. Mine sure would. :p

Terrific shot, Ken! Very appealing.

Lovely capture, Rich! Tack sharp!

Both of these shots are incredibly nice, Kirk! The reddish egret has gotta be my favorite.

Thank you Mike.

The funny thing is, the kids iris is blue. The parent is yellow.
They should be with same color if not hybrid (some jungle mynas are with blue iris).

Great capture, Paul! That wondering shows that they are interested in what's out there. Food is not their only interest anymore.

Holy smokes, what a shot! She must of had a really wild time the night before. I hope she's not too hungover. :p

You're welcome, Mike. At first I read that as, "He got a little before sunset today." but I quickly realized my error.
But I still hope he did. Hee-hee!

Ha, ha...there was a female there too (I never got a shot at her). But I'll bet they had a pleasant time together. :-D

Saw this guy earlier today. Not sure what type he is. Anyone any ideas?

Update: Thank you to Archibald - It is a cormorant.

Nice shot, Michael! I looks like our double-crested cormorants, but I think your cormorant in this shot is called a common shag.

Outstanding Northern Cardinal capture, Tom! You really composed this shot very nicely!

Both of these are stunning captures of the Sandhill Crane, Mark! Very sharp images. Nice 3D effect.

Excellent shot of the Yellow-rumped warbler, Bill! Lovely setting.

Super nice shots of the junior White-breasted Waterhen, RAL! You got nice sharp focus, even if your R5 camera wasn't focusing directly on the eye.

Nice shot Mike. Those can be tough to get up close.

Many thanks, Ken. Actually I was sitting on my little traveling stool, trying to get shots of cormorants coming in. I just happened to look up at a small tree to my right, and there he was, looking at me. I was able to fire off two shots and that was it. They are such difficult birds to get shots of. They simply refuse to stay still.
