Here's yet another picture of a Great Blue Heron

On my most recent walk, I ran into this handsome Great Blue Heron.

We had some Turkey Vultures hanging around the property this week so I got some time to practice taking pictures of birds mid flight.

I've thought about that before, but most hawks I see in my area are much too large. I assume this one is a juvenile Red Tail but I could also be wrong. I have never seen a Coopers in this area but there is a first for everything.

This Red-Tailed Hawk wasn't impressed with me trying to scare it away from my chickens.

This is the best photo I've taken of a Great Egret so far. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get any closer so this is cropped down pretty far.

Playing around with the macro lens some more. This Marigold is happily growing in one of my gardens.

Some sort of Anthurium I saw at a local plant nursery

Took this picture almost a week ago. I believe it is an Olive-sided Flycatcher but I'm not sure.

I normally post pictures of wildlife but I do take pictures of landscapes and anything else that looks nice. This is from a walk I took a week ago.

This Turkey Vulture decided to roost near where I walk.

On my most recent walk I was able to snap this photo of a Great Blue Heron as it flew past me.

I always love seeing birds fluff up while doing their calls. This is a Grackle that decided to be a menace and follow me.

Caught a Song Sparrow singing their song.

Here is the same Great Blue Heron that I posted yesterday. I took this photo with the P950 and as a secondary camera it definitely does what I wanted.

I have so many Great Blue Heron pictures that it's hard to pick which ones to post.

Had three Toms strutting in our field.

Here is a Great Blue Heron I took a picture of yesterday with the P950. I was able to zoom in more but I think cropping with my usual setup would've looked better.

Here is a Red-winged Blackbird sitting on top of a pole. I took this with the P950. I think it's a perfectly fine camera if it is all you have but I think I'll just carry it for the zoom to get pictures that are beyond the reach of my Z7ii.

More practice with the P950, a Bluejay looking down at me.

I recently got a Coolpix P950 because there has been a lot of times where I just don't have enough reach. I'm still not sure what to think of it but I'd rather get a somewhat good picture than not get one at all.

Here is a Baltimore Oriole that I saw today while practicing with the P950

On Monday I went on a walk and got several good photos of two Great Blue Herons. I finally got around to sorting through them and this one is definitely my favorite of the bunch.

Now that it's Gosling season I have to be very careful on my walks as to not incur the wrath of a very angry Goose.

I finally got a good picture of a Blue Jay, my favorite bird. I posted this yesterday and took it down after 30 minutes because I wanted to touch it up some more.

Here is a not very good picture of what I think is a Green Heron. I've never seen one before but that's the only thing I can think of it being.

#birds

Saw this Grackle the other day as it hopped and flew along with me for a good bit

#birds

Was going through previous photos and found another Heron that I haven't posted

The peach trees have been blossoming in my yard for a week and I'm hoping frost doesn't come and kill them off.
