Huzzah, I have spent over 6 hours on the water in my 'yak today. Didn't get many shots... many are the same/similar... most are blurry to some degree.. but I got out and shot on the kayak today. Sunny and overcast was the weather, with a fairly high humidity rating. Nice breeze, not nearly as bad as the winds they had called for.
Anyone have a clue what the heck this waterfowl is? It's not a heron, or a goose... or a duck. The end of its bill was raptorlike, and it had no qualms diving beneath the water.
One last look at the waterfowl as it swam away...
Sorry for the blur, I had the sigma 75-300mm DL on and didn't boost the iso so it shot at 1/15 of a sec... what with the porcupine and the kayak moving I'm surprised it turned out even this well.
Last shot of the day from the kayak before heading back to my launch point. I had been in the kayak for over 5.5 hrs at that point and needed a stretch. I really liked that sky for some reason.
Now I'm off to xpost these all over the forums.
