Suddenly in the past two weeks I have taken a real enjoyment from trying to photograph these, and other birds. The first shot, equipped with my 70-200, took me thirty minutes to get close enough to get some shots. Then I remembered a 70-300 I could borrow, and that I have used for the rest of these. Seeing all the bird photos here on UHH has probably been somewhat responsible for this reckless behavior of mine. Further, I now find myself researching for a much longer zoom.

Oh oh, reckless behavior leading to G.A.S. - the worst kind! Very enjoyable series, especially enjoyed #3.

An excellent set. Very nicely composed. Bird photography is addicting. Birds in flight will get you next.

Thanks Linda. I know. I have a bottle of tums but I don't think they will help.

They only look like that because of the post processing. I was trying to not overdo it

Great pics! Those are white Herons if I'm not mistaken - one hint...the egrets have yellow feet ;)

I learned that about their feet being the tell a day or so ago. I must have a poor memory. I have a lot to learn
