Unnerving 👀. Especially in that white ghostly plumage 💯 Great photo nonetheless!

There is a lot of skill that goes into setting up the camera, the environment and luck for capturing wildlife pictures. Why not winning an award for that hard work? 🥇😊

Did he demand a seat at the table? Hopefully better manners than seagulls 😊👌

Rob’s theme for today’s #BirdOfTheDay is #Black (Alternative Robins).

I’ve chosen this silhouetted shot of a Raven in flight.

I fell in love with my 200-500mm lens again today. But the beast needs to lose some weight!

Visited #CapeCod #Massachusetts this past weekend. I favorite spot of mine for #birdphotography is a #Falmouth shallow estuary where many #aquatic #birds spend time feeding and preening. Double-crested #Cormorants were posing for me today preening and drying their feathers.
