From the Bullard Beach State Park campground last Sunday. These guys pretty much act like they own the place which makes them an easy camera target

I like your take on this photo, Alan. I would have zoomed in on one of them and as you've shown, that would be a mistake.

I would have no regrets with this egret photo, Jim. Beautifully photoed

Today's Winged Wednesday is a Sword-billed hummingbird photographed in Ecuador last month. I used a multi-flash set-up to capture the details and color of this large hummer. In the shade of the jungle he appears dark and colorless. Thanks for playing

Amazing how in the jungle that can look so colorless as it sure does have color.

Wow, another great set, every shot has something special about it, and all are different. That first one is truly outstanding Eric.

gorgeous photo... you nailed the trifecta of bird photography, wonderful bird in perfect focus, eye-level perspective, and flawless bokeh
