Birds in Flight around the lake.

[Isac]

We get a few different varieties birds at the lake, so here's a few in flight. Some IQ is average but I get what I can.

#1 - Great White Egret showing the White Faced Heron how to fly out of a tree.

#2 - Little Black Cormorant surveying the lakeside houses.

#3 - Little Black Cormorant just after take off.

#4 - Welcome Swallow showing off.

#5 - Black Winged Stilt looking for a landing zone.

#6 - Great White Egret - checking out the local real estate.

#7 - Yellow Billed Spoonbills high overhead.

Thanks Kevin. Those swallows are very fast. There were quite a few buzzing around so I got lots of shots. Only about half a dozen keepers though.

black winged stilt looks to have the best IQ. others appear well exposed etc. think they showing effects of what is likely decent crops

Nice variety of birds there Isac. I have to agree with Stephen's comments, but I would be happy if I could manage a shot of a swallow half as good as yours. We get quite a few swallows in the park swooping on insects, I've never been able to capture anything but a blur.

Cheers Stephen. Big crops but nice to get some in flight anyway.

I was lucky with the swallow John. There were a few of them buzzing around a baby on a post trying to give it some food.

Thanks Phil. The IQ is not the best in a few of them but I take what I can get these days.
