Head shots of a black-browed albatross at Steeple Jason Island, Falkland Islands (Malvinas) (K1 DFA 150-450 at >400+ mm).
An unbelievably beautiful bird photographed at the edge of the largest nesting colony of black-browed albatross in the world.

Another Supermoon. My first time using the Q series for a moon shot. Tough to follow the shot above!

Pentax Q7 and F* 300mm F4.5

Very well done. Getting something recognizable in the foreground really makes the image eye-worthy.

This Cattle Egret is still on the Toronto waterfront, and much more cooperative this time. We seem to have an incursion of these birds in various locations across Ontario.





A Shoveler having a shuffle



A pair of Gadwall - plain at first sight but lots of detail in the plumage.



All with the K-3, DA* 300mm and 1.4x TC

I was in Toronto but didn't manage to fine time to seek out the egret.

Good thing the House Sparrows emptied the feeder today. It is going to have to be cleaned.

Reifel was one of our favourite places to visit when we lived on the Wet Coast. Nice shot of the bird.

Thanks, Albert. There were about 6 males and 3 females preening on a fallen alder over the pond. It was almost dusk under heavy overcast so lighting was not great. Yes, Reifel is one of my refuges.
