Description

LOL I saw three or four of these birds here on Rend. and they all knew the name of them. I forgot, I knew it before like at the age of 12 I knew this type of bird but now it out of my head. I was at Lake Martin and was driveing down the road slow looking and then I stop and looked around. I did not get out the car for I saw nothing good to shoot. I started to drive and then I saw him right there close to the road. I stop; change my lens on my film camera to the 200mm I could have put on the the 2x thing to make it 400mm but it was close up to me and look like he just wish to fish. I took many shots and to me this is the best one out of them. I got the film camera from my brother it about 30 years oud but it works good. may not have those high lens like they talk about in the forum but this will do. It have a bigger lans than my little sony point and shot digital and I have to use what I got. I will post more UV Lighting and flour shots this week end. I got marbles and a tennis ball hitting the flour too. But I did not resize them. I know it will not take long to do this resizeing but I tried and do not wish to do it now so I upload some of my animals shots like I say late week lol sorry for been late rainbows thank for looking and comments and votes too

Blue Heron I think. When the fly they have a huge wingspan and squawk something awful. Nice capture.
