Nice shots Scott! ; I am still going through my shots for Sunday, have to get them up.

 

Tried some dramatic processing on the Clapper Rail.

Nice shots Scott! ; I like the one of the cormorant, looks like he knew you were taking a shot of him!

 

nice shots Scott. those cormorants always look like they are posing

 

Really like that last one Scott, love the framing and the focus, perfect!

 

Thanks, Paul! ; The Sun only peaked out a few times on this day and that was one of them. ; Cormorants are pests up on Lake Ontario where they have over run some small islands and had to be irradiated. Forsythe has a good balance of species even if their behavior this year is confusing the humans. ;
