Sunfish 33 Loc: Merritt Island, Fl
 
This is only the second one I have found. I'd love to get one feeding but they are largely nocturnal and begin to forage at dusk. Comments welcomed.

Awesome!! Very sharp. I think you could crop some of the left side out.

Beautiful capture. I like the first crop better, but you should leave more in front of the bird instead of behind him.

I like the last one! But more in font would be nice. Could you run out and take a few more for us.:):) Not that we are picky or anything.:) I just dream of shots like this. :(

Nice picture! Here at the Jacksonville Zoo, there are about four or five of these young ones. They come and go as they please. I can always find at least one that wants it's picture taken!

Great shot Sunfish 33, love the backround also. I always thought they were night feeders also, but I have quite a few shots of them feeding on the beach in the morning in bright daylight. They like to dig for crabs

Thanks Gregory! That's interesting. I'll keep eyes open for that around here.
