I look out into the field and see these two standing out there waiting for some food..

As I got closer one flew away,I shut my truck off and sat quietly suddenly this guy started to squawk..

One of the parents was delivering breakfast and he jumped right on it with the instinct to cover the prey..

This small buck jumped up as I was driving up to where the blackberries are,he was no more than 15 feet away and by the time my camera booted up this was the best I could do before he headed out..

GOD Bless

have seen lots of herons in our creeks and rivers, but never one in a tree before. Totally outstanding pics.

First one I ever see up there too.
 

That was quite a treat for us too! Thanks for those.��
 

Good pictures once again. What camera are you using? I've found that cheap tripods don't work well for video. Needs to be solid and have a fluid head. Even with the shakes I enjoyed the video. Don't get to see that kind of thing where I live.

Boats,

I use a Nikon P-520,hand held vids are stable,I forgot to turn off stabilization for a t-pod.I have 3 big t-pods but I don't take them with me,this one is a small one.
 

I love your places to take pictures and although I can't take good pictures I can view them thru your lens. Thanks for beauties.
 

That's quite a summer you've had Chris with the eagles. I've hardly seen any this year. Thanks for keeping us posted on these birds progress.
