I thought it was interesting to compare the varied looks of the juveniles - who don't gain the distinctive white heads and tails until around age 5.
Canon SX50 with in-camera teleconverter. All edited in PSE12, including something I learned yesterday: opening a jpg in "camera raw." All but #2 have slight poster edges effect.
OMg...those are great photos...all of them!
All very interesting to see - I love looking at the different birds and learning about them. Thankyou.

Thanks so much for your kind words, Holly. I have sure enjoyed this modestly priced super-zoom camera since purchasing last May :)
Great shots all of them but the one with the fish is outstanding.

Thank you Georgie. I've learned so much about birds from a photo buddy/birder friend + on UHH, but the amount I still don't know is staggering :)

Thank you Jim! I saw it land on the stump but didn't realize it held a fish 'til I'd taken quite a few shots of its mate in another tree (as always, they were quite far away!). The right time/right place luck continues on :)

Love these, especially the last one. Did you crop these much and how far away were you? I just got a sx50, and not convinced yet I'm loving it. I'm sure it's operator error, or learning curve, or whatever.
The old man shows the youngsters how its done!
Great ones Linda!! I saw a couple of juvies yesterday but didn't get a postable photo, even with PP. TNmike

Beautiful series but 3 is my favorite.
Very nice, they look closer, but I know they are across the river. Thanks for sharing. Bee
These are just super! 1 and 4 are my favorites, they are gorgeous.
