A very good detailed series.

Thanks eaglem The birds and water have gone now so no more walks to take photos. I'll post shots of the dried up lake later.

Lovely tranquil scenes. Great detail, sharpness and colour. Shame about the duck in #4

The first three are good for context and showing the number and variety of birds.

That looks like a blue Spoonbill in #4. Good eye contact but I'd try to correct the colour and lose the duck

#5 is the standout here. Good colour and a nice reflection with some feeding action.

Thanks for that A&B. I killed of the Pacific Black just for you.

Thank you Alan. Nice to see a few different birds about. Definitely a Yellow Spoony. With no water, they're all gone now. I lost the duck and adjusted the colours. The bird was in the shade which doesn't help.

Excellent shots Isac.

Thanks for that David. Maybe more when we get good rains to fill the lake again.

David, every time I see Delaware, it reminds me of a great Perry Como song published in 1959 which has references to 15 states of the U.S.
