Very nice images. I really liked the bird stacking. What a lucky catch and you took great advantage of it.

The first two shots are stacked in a natural sense. I found it unusual to find three different species posing together in this manner. The other shots are birds from the same outing plus one turtle shot. All were taken hand held from a slow moving boat.
Great series Carol...enjoyed your bird stacking...and loved all your shots!!!

Thank you. I thought the bird stacking was too good to be true. Besides that, they weren't in a big hurry to leave!

Thank you Jim. These were on the St. John's River in the Deland area near Hontoon Island. It is a very secluded area on weekdays!

WOW! Remarkable job capturing some of nature's fascinating creatures, Cwilson. Bet you'll never see an anhinga, ibis and heron posing at the same time again.

Ooops! Meant to say egret in my comment - not heron.
