What a nice flight capture of the Red Bellied Woodpecker, Paul!

Great shot, Ed! I'm pretty sure there is an unlucky fish swimming just in front of the Osprey.:-)

Crack'in flight shot of the Great Blue Heron, Jimmy!

Thank you Mike.

You captured this Reddish Egret quite nicely, Kirk! I like seeing the environment in which the bird is flying.

Often mistaken, but never in doubt.

Thanks Bill. It's hit and miss with these guys. It's breeding season so there are a lot of territorial disputes between the males which brings them out of cover and out into the open and brings some opportunities to photograph them in the air.

We just get to see them passing through during migration on their way to the breeding ground so entirely different behavior.

A little included environment never hurt, there's still detail in the bird. Thanks, Mike.

Thanks! I don't think so, the fish are usually a bit deeper in this estuary. Usually the eagles take the floaters.
