Yes very skittish. Something about the way we look
Closest I've gotten is across the road and cropping as much.

Waiting for White Tailed Kites at sunset in my back yard and lo and behold fifteen (15) egrets flew by. That was something and had way too much lens to capture them all at once.

Magpie-larks (Australia) - are neither magpies nor larks but that's common names for you.
Or Peewees - for their call.
Or Mudlarks - for their mud nests.
People note different things about the sexes' appearance: I see the black stripe across the male's face and down the female's.

The purple and great blue are in different parts of the world and also have slightly different coloring. I am in North American and purple's do not live here. There is a very good summary of herons and egrets at avibirds.com. Thanks for your feedback!I could be wrong but I believe that's a Purple Heron

I'm becoming partial to environmental birds in flight images. Especially when the light painting is as such!

Unfortunately it was windy that morning so the water is not smooth and mirror-like, so not quite the picture I was after unfortunately but getting there. A few more attempts and I'll have the light, the wing position, the sharp eye and the reflection

Manged to follow quite a bit of advice from Steve's "Birds in Flight" book.... just not the "get closer to your subject" suggestion - oh well, at least I got 5 frames of the take off acceptably sharp for a change!

This is nice, I was able to get only three images in sequence.
….however, the wing looks like sheer paper with the water reflected on it - what a great effect.Unfortunately it was windy that morning so the water is not smooth and mirror-like, so not quite the picture I was after unfortunately but getting there. A few more attempts and I'll have the light, the wing position, the sharp eye and the reflection

Thanks! I was quite impressed with myself for panning with it…. Had to join the first and last frames together to “expand the canvas”

Great shot Ira! Would never know you used a tc especially with all the negatives about tc and 500pf.
