Thanks, it was a lucky hit on timing for sure.
It sure didn't take long.
Now we go the the hatch portion with senor bringing in fish all day long.
If I remember the young will fledge around end June or early July.
Fun to watch.
Thanks.
It's been fun to watch. Last year there was a single pair, this year 2 pair.
There are a couple of pair of Osprey nesting locally.
The female has been sitting in the corner of the light tower not moving for days.
The male swoops down, climbs on her back... flies off. It sure looked like a mating event but I defer to anyone
more knowledgeable.
If you really want to shoot the photos, do it for free.
Not worth $50 imo
Thanks again all...
"HUNTING" birds is a fun sport.
Thanks again all...
Went again last night and caught an osprey.
I'll put the pics up when I dl them...
Plenty of terns also.
Great spot at sunset.
Plum Island, Newburyport, Mass...
Great sunset place and the last light really lights up the gulls.
It is a Least Tern breeding area and on this night they were everywhere.
Thanks
I would have guessed higher!
Great shot.
What shutterspeed did you use... tough to freeze a hummingbird for sure.
Actually looking at the file I can see the
Edge of the birds head.
I thk it confirms the slaty back gull suggested early in the thread. I can see
The mottled edge of his head as well as his beak.
Cool bird anyway!
Great spot to shoot birds… got a few good tern shots and a decent number of assorted other gulls.
yep. Looks like the one but pretty far out of his normal range! Thanks for the identity.
Thanks, the wing tip spread threw me off of gulls.. but there sure are a lot of different gulls there.
