Great captures, especially the contortionist.


Thanks, Barbara. Most of the birds were constantly preening - the bugs were out in force - I think it's the high humidity.

Beautifully done, Elliott. I’ve been by the Welcome Center a hundred times and didn’t know the Rookery was back there. I guess I concentrating on weekend traffic.


Oh my - they won't be there much longer, Joe. If you can, get there soon.

I went to the Rookery at Ocean City NJ, on Thursday 8/18/2022, which can be accessed from welcome center on the bridge. It's an amazing place where many species nest every year. There were Egrets, Night Herons, White Ibis, Little Blue Herons, and more. I'll provide shots of other birds in subsequent posts.

Thank you, Jim. I concentrate on the highlights more than usual whenever I shoot such birds. I did have some throw-aways due to blown highlights - it's inevitable.
