From a kayak, too?

Arnt

Yes.

I got some nice bird shots I will try to post latter if I can get some time (shore birds and Green Heron).

Pat, these are great. Amazing capture of the little guy with Mommy! You have a steady kayak and hand!

Thank you Arnt and Jayson. It was a good morning.

Lovely Denise. I wish i could get some HB here. Too dry and all my flowers died.

I did finally get a monarch this year.

I came across two sets of loons kayaking on Sunday. I've processed my shots from the first set. These were my favorites:

All shot with a Canon 7D, 100-400L @ 400 mm, 1/800, f/5.6, ISO 200

Brant:

Those are all great. I always wanted to get close to a loon (the bird type). The forth one is my favorite... a few perch in their belly and now they are kicking back.

Brant, this a fantastic set of shots! I couldn't even decide which was my fav, I like them all!!

@Jayson - I love your monarch shots! Beautiful lighting and perfect focus! I wish I could get a shot of one on a small flower like that and with such beautiful bokeh! Much prettier than my large butterfly bush!

Great catch! Did you want to see the other end ??? The detail on the back is pretty amazing. Crocs are so cool!
