Welcome to BCG! You have offered up some stunning images! I especially like the ruddy duck. I saw my first one earlier this year in British Columbia. And the Cootiew is a new one to me!

 

[Mary Williams Hyde]

Thank you so much.....and it was fun to learn this year that baby Coots are called Cooties!

Thank you

So many beautiful images posted!

My favourites this year were the wild horse stallions mock fighting, I managed to get sequences of the fights this year.
1-3 are one set, 4-7 are another. They were all fine after this, but the young stud definitely got the wind knocked out of his sails, he didn't challenge any other studs for about 20 minutes after he got knocked over, then he was right back at being the annoying youngster.

Not sure these count relative to the previous 5(6) pages of posts... Hopefully the 17-year Cicadas are a bit interesting.

Great variety. Even though they were all shot in very challenging situations, you used your tools and skills to create memorable images.

Thank you Karen

Rick, how do you like the 800f6.3? I’ve been going back and forth on whether I should purchase it. 99% of what I photograph are birds. That oystercatcher shot is really spectacular.

 

[JPtri]

another superb series, the oystercatcher is splendid and the 800-6.3 is very good
