Thank you so much, Reconvic.... very happy to have found this group! Seems like an especially nice group of talented and knowledgeable photographers. Hoping I can improve my skills and knowledge base. I've already taken a bunch of notes on what type of computer to purchase (I'll soon be in the market) and places to visit. I also really enjoy viewing all the great images.

Wonderful and sharp images! Not sure if I'm asking this correctly, however, what was the focal length of the images (i.e. how far away were you)? Thank you for sharing!

Very sharp images! The first two (blue jay? and dove?) appear to be on nearly the same exact spot on the same branch. Is there something attracting them to that spot? Thank you for sharing!

Not sure who got the better captures... you or the birds.... :^) Wonderful images!!!

AMAZING IMAGES! I love the title: Cattle Egret - Impersonating Rod Stewart!! LOL!
Keep 'em coming... nothing more enjoyable than viewing stunning images of wonderful subjects.

One consideration should be the overall weight of your gear as it could be a factor on smaller aircraft. You may want to check with the tour operator to see if there are any weight restrictions if you're bringing a lot of gear. I was on a tour in Canada where one photographer had to pay extra to charter another small aircraft. Due to the weight of his gear he couldn't go on the flight with the others.

I went to Lake Clark last year. While you will have opportunities for bears that are relatively close, there is also a very large meadow where you'll be happy to have any extra reach you can muster. Have an awesome time!

Stunning... very impressive! What camera set up did you use?
