Monday of this week was such a beautiful day - temps in the 80s with a nice breeze. We decided to take the boat out and catch some sun, charge up the batteries, and maybe get some photographs. I definitely caught some sun...a little too much...the batteries are charged well after 5 hours of running, and I took 1210 photographs. That's right - I said 1210! I am SO thankful for digital! Now, after the first run-through, I have about 500 left. After the next run through, if I have 50 decent ones, I will be surprised. After all, with a bright, sunny day, and a boat speeding along at about 25 mph in 15 mph winds...let's just say clear photos are a surprise, not a given!
Here are a few of the bird photos I managed to capture. They were fun to watch!

| Just away from the ramp, we spotted one of the nesting eagles. She didn't let me get any closer... |

| No shortage of geese! |
 |
| Hen party...hey, who invited you? |
 |
| That sun feels SO good! |
 |
| I see a fish...I see a fish! |

Great series! How nice to get to see the eagle nesting :)
Beautiful, I love this beautiful series of birds.
What a fabulous day Linda! I love the shot of the Cormorants with the gulls and your comment ;-) And the Osprey! I have never seen an Osprey sitting in the water like that. How odd!
Calling by as another Outdoor Wednesday participant, what a lovely day for photography, we need some warmth here now.
Gorgeous shots, Linda!
I love the picture of all the birds sitting together!
great pics again. I would LOVE to see an Eagle!!!
Excellent shots, and I thought I was the only person out there shooting 1000+ pics a day!
Cheers!
Really nice shots, Linda! I'm partial to raptors so I love your eagle photo!
Wonderful shots of all the beautiful birds.
