Gulf Shores Birds and Osprey From Vacation

Made it back after a little R & R in Gulf Shores, AL.  Managed to get a little bird time in and some practice at shooting them in flight.  There are many, many bad shots to back up these few that turned out.

The top picture almost made the trip.  I caught an osprey just after it caught a fish, I think a pompano.  I was lucky enough to get several  good shots of him at a respectable distance.  And here's some of the best.

I managed to ferry over to Dauphin Island and walk some of the Audubon Bird Santuary paths with my kids, but there wasn't much activity since it was the middle of the day or so.

Anyway, I'm back and have got a few projects to post and some creatures from the yard to post in the coming days.  Thanks for stopping by!
