Had to sneak up on these two guys real quiet like to get close enough. They are so awesome to look at, except for the ugly one.

Great photos, my favorite is the 3rd one! You've got a Great Blue Heron, Canada Geese, and a Turkey Vulture (who are interesting even if some people find them "ugly" LOL)

Thx. This one was really blue, not grey like all the other pics I've seen. And for the geese, they are so chubby. They let me watch them all day.

Ditto on all three. I've not seen a Great Blue Heron that blue before. Great photographs. CT
