Nice looking pictures! I love photographing birds when I'm not taking pictures of BIG "birds" lol.

As long as they have wings of some sort, I love them!!

Those are really nice photos, I especially like the pelican. May I ask how you got so close?

Some of the birds around here dont seem to scared of humans. They watch me closely, but as long as I stay pretty still they dont mind posing for me.

Very nice pictures. I'm an avid birdwatcher, so I especially appreciate bird photos...

Here is another one I call Where's Waldo. It's a great blue heron camouflaging himself.

I live in Eagle River and we have lots of eagles. This one was taken on a day after a bunch of eagles had eaten a whole salmon given to them by the firehouse.

I also love the Where's Waldo pic! Perfect title!

Our eagles around here are hit and miss. You either see 50 in one day that will allow you to get close, or you see none for weeks. Sadly it's always the days I don't bring the camera with me I run into numerous ones that day.
