    A Mixed Bag Of Wildlife

    While out doing inspections today, I saw, and managed to photograph, birds, fish, turtles and a nutria.

    Heck of a day.

    The cardinal shot is heavily cropped.

    The bass and turtle are reduced for PR.

    The nutria is about a 50% crop, then reduced for PR.

    The turtle was taken with the Coolpix 5700. The other three were taken with the D200.

    Talking LOVE that nutria

    I knew we had them here, but this is the first one I've ever seen. I was tickled to be able to get some shots of it.

    This sucker was big. I saw him walk into the pond where I took this. I'm guessing he weighed about 50 pounds.

    Glad you liked the shot!
