Now is that really a hummingbird, it looks like you got a stuffed one and stuck in on that branchhttp://dgrin.com/images/smilies/roflol.gif.

I am beginning to believe that all shots taken of a kingfisher are like shots taken of bigfoot.

Nice hawkhttp://dgrin.com/images/smilies/icon10.gif

Looks like my kingfisher shots. :lol4

I'm expecting either you or Jeff to come in with a close up shot, maybe a nice kingfisher macro. :lol

Ben.....what happened? Did you forget your TCs ? :rofl

Magnifying glass? Heck....I'm gonna need a microscope for those little things.:D

Nice captures. What's the matta'......don't you like to crop? You could have cropped much tighter....and told a wonderful story to Harry how you snuck up on the elusive kingfisher....and how you got right up next to him..and he posed and sang you a song. :uhoh

Some nice captures machine gun. :thumb :thumb :thumb

ben - i totally dig your bird shots but i don't often comment - i look at all of them!

on this one, i do not like the masking / exposure work - too much evidence of photoshop - so imo, either it needs to be done again or trashed :):

keep up the good work!

Ya know I think that's an excellent correlation, maybe I'd be better of trying to shot "BigFoot" :rofl
