After a long time away I recently discovered with the help of Lava Lamp that there is now a Nature and Wildlife board here so I decided to give it a try. This is a group of pictures that I took near Galveston, TX on Christmas eve using a Canon 350D and EF 100-400 IS lens.
The day turned out to be very windy and there was quite a bit of sand blowing about which didn’t exactly make for great birding or photography though I think I managed a few keepers.
The first bird is a willet, the second a snowy plover, the third a western sandpiper and finally the last one is a ring-billed gull.
Please let me know what you think,
Greg
