Lots of birds, the gate has been removed, and the birds are starting to display great color!

I had a very enjoyable weekend there!

Nice work Wyn, I didn't know that they changed color.

Pretty cool. I really like the photo of the Pelican with the outstretched body (9184).

Wyn,

I really like #9055 with the larger bird feeding the younger one - great close up and detail! What are of some of the technical details like zoom length and shutter speed?

Lastly use [u r l] [/u r l] tags in your text to create links like this http://gallery.me.com/wynknapp#100221. That way ppl don't have to copy and paste. :wink:

Man I just love watching these birds as they skim virtually inches off the water effortlessly gliding along. Thanks for sharing and I look forward to future images tracking their color changes.
