Very Nice Portraits:clap . Snowy looks to have a bit of "cotton mouth" Notice the lures beginning to change on the herons....can't wait for St. Aug!!!!!

[Maestro]

Nice portraits. I really #2. I think it is the light. Can never have enough ospreys either. That is an osprey, right?

There's a lot of that "cotton mouth" going around as they are always preening themselves. Yep, those lores are changing, mating season is around the corner. I figure in 2-3 weeks the season should be starting in St. Augustine.

Actually the weather was perfect for the last 5 days of the shoot. We only had crappy weather on teh first two days.

The shoot was a tremendous amount of fun.

I always enjoy seeing your images. They are very sharp and have a great feel to them. Sure would be nice to come down that way and do a shoot with you sometime. We don't get those type of species up here in the northland. Thanks for your taking time to post these and moderating the forum. I for one am appreciative and learn neat things here. :clap
