More Hummingbirds!

This is the last of the keepers from my recent attempt at shooting them.

And thanks TheReef!

In French we say "tabarouette" , as in OMG 😱

Very nice capture, one you can be proud of.

And I say: "Merci beaucoup mon ami". 🙂

For today is another Osprey shot from a different perspective. Their average wingspan is 170 cm (5.5 ft.).

Anvil Cottage, in the village of Near Sawrey (where Beatrix Potter lived)...

Beautiful photos, Doylem. It's so good to see the springtime at last!

That's quite extraordinary, Reef! I can just imagine it as a picture from another planet.

Wow, is that what it really looked like? It's gorgeous.

Kinda sorta? 😱

It's been processed thru Lightroom/Photoshop but it's pretty close to the truth. When I look at it I can still remember the smell of the ocean air and the sound of the ocean waves crashing down.

Went with the family to the medieval festival today at Gumeracha, South Australia. There was a falconer at the event who also had this Hawk Owl with him. I got the traditional full frontal type shots of this bird, but, this is my favourite shot of the lot, with both bird and keeper in it.
