Camera Critters






Hello Everyone! I am not going to keep repeating myself, but you know that I love this time of the week.
These were taken at Cape May Point earlier this month. In the first pic, I didn't realize he was there until he moved. I was able to focus quick. I was glad because once I took the picture, he flew. I love his reflection in the lake.

He had good cover in that first image. I so agree - the reflection and the capture in flight is awesome!

Awesome shots! I can't get a good pic of the heron who visits our pond, because I don't notice him until he flies away. These are awesome!

Great shots. Especially the heron is great! I never get a chance to photograph the herons around here. They always fly away.
