Utterly perfect shots Wayne. We have a number of them here also and they don't seem too shy. :)

Hey Wayne nice shots...super sharp! I think the perch in #2 nearly poked my eye out...

I like the vegetation and the low perch in the first.

Very nice Wayne. I had thought about going to Petrie today but time was limited so I tried the Richmond Lagoons for the first time. It's definitely worth the visit.
