Pileated WP....first time I've seen one in northeastern MA. I was totally caught by surprise and as quickly as he appeared he was gone.
Not the best pic, but I got him....

Sorry if you're growing tired of seeing all of my GBH shots but I have to do something with all these photos I take of him! He makes for great target practice (with a camera)! This one was taken at sunset...

Thanks Denise!
That's a nice one, ready for take off!
Nice gold fish capture too.., a shot like that would benefit from a Circ. Pol. because it will make the water look more realistic, cut out the harsh light and make the grass look more natural. The lighting in this shot above is much, much, better. Check out the CP thread from a couple of days ago, I put in some examples.
The cool thing for me is, I now found out where these big birds hang out, so hopefully I'll be getting some cool shots when I could set-up from land. I truthfully didn't even know that we had birds like this in my area. I live on the beach, so I never see them, however I now know that they hang out in the marsh and were very well hidden, so I now marked the spot. Hehe...!
