Really nice photos. I can't get close to the ones around where I live.

Surprised you were able to get them to hold still long enough to get a good shot. Thanks for posting.

I've been after these guys for years. For some reason the last few months before leaving Florida they would perch, assume a nice pose, give out a call so I would notice them and wait for a couple shutter clicks. Then they would assume another pose and wait again. It was amazing. Maybe since we had been there so many times they had gotten used to us.

Yeah, tell me about it! After years of chasing these guys from Alaska to Florida and every where in between it finally all came together.

Well done, Chief. They heard that you were thinking about leaving and wanted to give you some poses to remember them.
