Few shots from Sunday

[CHRIS]

Took this shot of the Swan while I was looking for a Seal that keeps coming onto a dock. Did not find the Seal but this Swan loved its picture taken.

I shot this Bufflehead near the Swan.

This was at a resevoir I shoot near where I know there is a few Hawks. Thought it was pretty cool.

I found a new place to shoot at a forest near me. Somebody leaves bird food at a rock and there is so many different types of birds. It was great and I cannot wait to get back. I wish it was Moose and Eagles but that will have to wait til we move North. Maybe Patrick will let me tag along someday :D.

[TrishandAlex]

Nice, Chris! You know, when I saw your Facebook post the other day, I thought you meant the other kind of shoot. :o Nice to see that you meant something else. :)

Nice photos!

[CHRIS]

Thanks Trish. Heck no I could never shoot any animal.

[Jimmy Legs and Little d]

[Charlie]

very nice Chris

[forestgnome]

Great stuff, Chris! All wildlife is wonderful, not just the big ones. You've captured some really nice images here. What kind of woodpecker is that?

Thanks for sharing :)

[1HappyHiker]

Chris, you got some really nice shots, many of which would look absolutely terrific as a framed photo, and would certainly rival anything found for sale in many stores.

Thanks for posting.

[Snow Miser]

Very nice photos Chris. The close-ups are amazingly clear. The Bufflehead is a really nice one. I love seeing them down here on rare occasions.

Great stuff, Chris! All wildlife is wonderful, not just the big ones. You've captured some really nice images here. What kind of woodpecker is that?

Thanks for sharing :)
I believe it is a Red Bellied Woodpecker. If someone knows if it is different please feel free to correct me.You are right that all wildlife is wnderful.I love to just watch and listen to them.Oh yea and to shoot them to.

[CHRIS]

I was @ one of my favorite places to shoot birds today and I got these.
These two Hawks were flying around and screaching alot. (really cool)

These two Cardinals were hard to capture because they never sat still long enough.
