Couple animals

Finally got closer to the Cormorant! I don't think they can blink looking at those eyes..

There was also a nice reflection going this morning, so I shot some young coots.

I'm begining to see why dragonflies don't slow down much, I think this Oriole has a mouthful of them!

When I was going home after picking the dog up from my parent's house I had to stop for a family crossing the street.

Nice shots Rich, cormorant is great!

My preference it the greedy Oriole, :) I like to see critters at work or play. All good captures Rich!]

Thanx guys.

Do cormorants blink??? Doesn't look like they can. I love that ring around their eyes too.

I saw the Oriole again today, in the same clump of branches, doing the same thing. I can't see well enough to swear all that stuff is dragonfly parts. He sure has an easy time collecting them.

Very nice series of shots, The Oriole is also my favorite, what a mouthful he has.

Very sharp images, Rich. Looks like you are making some good use out of your new toy.
