There is an island at Lake Francis in Valier MT that at one end of the island the GBH nest this time of year. In the middle of the island are the Double Crested Cormorants and at the other end the Seagulls and Canada Geese nest. I was able to count 56 GBH but I bet I didn't see them all!

Thanks...I used the nikon d500 with the nikor 200-500 hand held but it sure did help that I got out of the boat and went on shore!

Very nice series. Interesting how they like to hang out in trees. Really like the bird in flight image.

Thanks, they sure do like to hang in those trees but each one was by a nest, hopefully when we head back next week there will be chicks.
