My Kingfisher Friend

Posted By Tyler Allred

This bird is hanging around in the same area every morning, but it is pretty jumpy. I managed several frames this morning on the way to work.
Cheers,

Bald Eagle Taking Flight

Posted By Tyler Allred

I managed to get within range of this bird before it took flight. I caught it with the wings in the full up position. I've never really got one like this before.
Cheers,

Muskrat

Posted By Tyler Allred

I found this muskrat living in a beaver pond in an area of the Provo River that was restored 2 years ago. This was shot at 210mm with the 80-400mm VR. I got pretty close to it.

Diving Kingfisher

Posted By Tyler Allred

I snapped a frame of this kingfisher as it dove toward the water. I couldn't see the impact point, but I did hear it! It's not a very good quality shot, but it is in a pretty neat body position, so I posted it anyway.
Cheers,
Tyler
