A few more shots from the marsh behind the Aquarium. Hope you enjoy them.

It looks like someone is turning into a BIRD NERD! I really like the reflection in the first pic, and the fish in the mouth in the other 3 is great too.

NEVER!!!!

OK, so maybe I got out the Nat Geo Bird Book and looked up some birds, but that doesn't make me a bird nerd by any means.

Well, maybe a junior birder...

Thanks for the comments Michael.

That 3rd one is great - it looks like he's coughing up a wrong-way fish

That reflection one is great too. I love the leg position. Kinda like how them models stand on the runway.

Seems like the color is off a little - too much blue and cyan?

"too much blue and cyan?"

I did a crop and a slight levels adjustment. Is definitely has too much blue, but I didn't want to mess around with it and make it worse, or throw off other colors. I'm a photoshop novice and do basic stuff. I've played with hue and constrast, but I don't have a good handle on it yet.

"I love the leg position. Kinda like how them models stand on the runway."

I like it too. Very cooperative model.

Thank you Bev! The reflection shot is one of my more popular ones that I've taken lately. I actually entered that one in the NC Wildlife Photo Competition (even though it has too much blue in it.)
