Thanks David. Geoffrey http://500px.com/geoffreymontagu

Welcome to BPN, Dave. Beautifully captured small in the frame image. Like the soft pastel color quality, frost covered twigs, and your choice of crop. Nice to see the bits of frost falling knocked off by the Stonechat landing. Looking forward to more images. Geoffrey...

Great look at this beautifully designed creature, Bill. Like the open beak, the perch, and surrounding wild grasses. Geoffrey http://500px.com/geoffreymontagu

Outstanding pose you were given William. All the colors work beautifully together, under a nice soft light. Geoffrey http://500px.com/geoffreymontagu

This was two frames on of the takeoff of the Juvenile Great Blue Heron from the other day. He was a bit tight, close to the left, in the frame, thus the crop. Had to add some space to the left. C&C welcome. D500, Sigma 150 to 600mm C @ 150mm, 1/2300s, f/6.3, Handheld, ISO 1200. Geoffrey...

Thanks everyone. No excuse for the eye and neck not being sharp. Geoffrey http://500px.com/geoffreymontagu

All you needed was some rain, Jonathan. I like the original post. Having not seen this bird in person, I did a bit of research, and from what I can see the Great *** seems to have fairly muted colors. Under the overcast I would agree the OP is quite accurate. I also like what Steve reposted, and...

Thanks. That was my first instinct when I saw the heron in the field, John. Not sure why I thought it might be a Tricolored Heron other than wishful thinking. If one of the moderators would please change the title to Immature Great Blue Heron. Thanks in advance. Geoffrey...

Yesterday late afternoon at a local grassland preserve I found this TRHE just on the edge of a field hunting for Voles. After about 10 minutes he decided to take off for another location. Image was captured a micro second before liftoff. C&C welcome. D500, Sigma 150-600mm C @ 225mm, 1/3200s...

Thanks everyone. I like your varied points of view and suggestions. Geoffrey http://500px.com/geoffreymontagu

Excellent capture of this beauty, William. I like his level on the perch, and the over the shoulder looking back with nice eye contact. Outstanding background as well. Geoffrey http://500px.com/geoffreymontagu

What beautiful artwork, Ann. Love the light and your choice of composition. How great she landed in the crabapple tree. Geoffrey http://500px.com/geoffreymontagu

Beautifully captured flight, Bill. What a great winter for the Gray Ghosts. Nice wings up, clear view of the talons, and I like the scanning look. Geoffrey http://500px.com/geoffreymontagu

Yesterday at a local wildlife refuge on a cool overcast day in a marsh area there were a number of Song Sparrows dining or gathering nest reinforcement from the base of dried Cat of Nine Tail flowers. C&C welcome. D500, Sigma 150-600mm C @ 600mm, 1/1600s, f/6.3, Hand Held, ISO 1250. Geoffrey...

Yes. Don't think I've noticed that. I have only photographed youngsters, and it was not showing yet. Glad you were able to capture this image. Geoffrey http://500px.com/geoffreymontagu

A very fine flight capture, Brian. Including the nice forward wing stroke, I like the open/calling beak and the trailing drops of water. Geoffrey http://500px.com/geoffreymontagu

Thanks everyone, and for your keen observations. Geoffrey http://500px.com/geoffreymontagu

Nicely captured group under the magical light that day. How nice it was of them to pose in the shallows amongst the reeds. Happy New Year, Geoffrey http://500px.com/geoffreymontagu

And to you Gail and your family, a very Happy New Year. Fun capture. Geoffrey http://500px.com/geoffreymontagu

Hi Joe, Beautifully captured behavioral display. Always amazing, though it's easy for them, how comfortable the nest looks when they finish construction. Like the repost. Geoffrey http://500px.com/geoffreymontagu
