A Few Random Shots

A few bird encounters while on "non-birding" outings...

~A Wood Stork playing with its food at a local park~




~A Little Blue in the blue~


~A territorial dispute between some Mockingbirds (yes, it is pretty embarrassing that I stopped to take these photos...even a bit more embarrassed about feeling that I should break up the fight)

  12. Nothing embarrassing about taking the pictures - but lying flat on your face in public space to take the picture would be! I speak from experience!

  13. Awsome shots Tammy, I love the way the water is dripping off the fish, I'd hate to say who would win a beauty contest between a Wood Stork and a Black Vulture, Great shot all round.
    Take care Gordon.

  25. Nice series of bird shots for a "non-birding" outing! Superb quality, naturally, and great profiles of each species. No need to be embarrassed by the Mockers, behavioral shots beat a still portrait any day for me!

    And thank you for reminding us not to take our gorgeous sunsets for granted!
