Taken last month at Gatorland. They are nice to see in breeding plumage.

I think it was Stan I remarked to about the gorgeous plumage on these birds... anyway, this is a spectacular shot Scott, catching him in midair with the exceptional detail & resolution..

Thanks Stan....we always enjoy Florida & are envious of those of you who get to call it home :) Here is another shot that I didn't like as much.

Very fine shots of this beautiful bird Scott. Do they make a lot of noise while flying?

I love the first shot, Scott. What a great capture. And the second is also a fine shot.

Outstanding work Scott, both great quality.

I'm bound to run into you one day at Gatorland, maybe next spring. I'm already thinking about it and I haven't been back home long. :)
