Captured these guys at the park. First pic is a bit older than the second. Thanks for looking. :)

Nice and sharp on #1
The light on #2 is fantastic, if only that leaf were gone... Still beautiful...

That is a different looking bird, never seen one. Great shot, thanks for sharing.

Thanks Bob, Marj, Michele. Yeah, I wish that leaf wasn't there but I liked the pose he gave me. :) I only have the software that came with the camera right now so my photoshopping skills are lacking.
