Beautiful set of pictures.
I'm back from a couple days away, and popped in to see what you've been up to. My, Hannibal, your pictures are just amazing! I loved them all - need I say more. Stunning to say the least.
Gorgeous pictures.Yes,the light is perfect.
Blessings,Ruth
Great shots and super photography!
I'm just loving your new lens...I want one!! You really have quite a collection of wonderful photos of all these birds. A gorgeous shot of that turnstone..whew what colors.. I can feel the softness of those feathers on that royal tern. What a cutie baby....but obviously Mom didn't think the same way..
Excellent post..
Wow,
You're right the light is delightful, wonderful and your shots are gorgeous! Well done, I could not choose any of them, they are all superb shots!
A beautiful series, as is the one on the burrowing owls. Your trip certainly was a success.
Every photo is just beautiful!
