If you get up early, the pelicans become your friends. Here’s one fishing by the lighthouse in the fog from awhile ago.

OK, so there I was, setting up to capture Osprey images; all of the sudden - and a big KER-SPLASH! next to me.

Recently learned that yellow-rumped warblers will fish for bugs on ponds just like Eastern phoebes.

A Back Skimmer bird with its long lower beak and shorter upper beak is skimming its lower beak through the water as it heads towards the right of the camera to find surface fish to snap it shut. The birds have wide wingspans for the size of the bird to allow them to glide just above the water for more distance. They also have knife thin beaks to slice through the water and minimize water friction, both making fishing more efficient.

A prize for the Black Skimmer. A small fish in its beak. The birds have wide wingspans for the size of the bird to allow them to glide just above the water for more distance. They also have knife thin beaks to slice through the water and minimize water friction, both making fishing more efficient.
A few miles from here #BlackSkimmer s hang out. A long time goal was to get a decent action photo of them working.Now I just have to luck into one at the moment of the catch. 😜
