If anyone can pull this off, you can. What a great take off, and what a great photographer. Pure concentration on the face. To me it looks like a heron...but then you know I am a beginner at this birdin' thing. Will go and get my nook and take a look. genie
Love this shot especially since I fail miserably at action shots! Everything is very clear and crisp ad of course one of my all time favorite subjects!
The focus is fantastic here, Brian. I'm getting so frustrated with my 5D Mark II because it is too slow to focus in situations like this. I may have to sell it and get a crop frame sensor with faster focusing. Anyway, enough of my grumbling, this is awesome!
I wondered if that first one would show up in your favorites. I really do like the landing one (I am always amazed that these big birds can land with such precision) but all of them are amazing! I'm telling you, you need to come visit and go out on the kayak to Heron Island with us!
You certainly have a knack for catching those fish midair in the beak-LIKE. I agree with your favorite and the wing tip reflection makes it all the more interesting. enJOYed

Perfect shot. I love watching those awkward birds fly over our cabin. We don't have any water for them, but they are headed to some somewhere.
Wow! Fantastic Brian. I think you should publish a wild life coffee table book.
