Nice captures. Great shots of birds in breeding plumage. Can you tell me if that tundra ever dropped the other landing gear?

 

[Steve Sanford]

Spectacular images - a great eye for the beauty and tension. Congratulations on bringing back the "spring shoot"!

All the best,

Incredible!

The ring on the neck of that Grey is killer and I love the full colored Shoveler!

 

[Al Hansen]

Beautiful shots, David. What was your lens and camera that you used?

That Tundra looks like he lost a leg somewhere along the line. Great shots!

 

[David Stimac]

Thanks guys! That swan was just fine. It was super cold that morning and most birds had the landing gear tucked up in their belly feathers.

 

[TIM SCHLOSS]

Great shots. Thanks for putting them up.

He just appreciated David's attempt to mimic a Van Gilder painting....! Very Nice work, David, always impressive to see the concentrated pulse of spring birds coming through.

Great photos! We need a Spring duck season where you are allowed only 1 or 2 trophy ducks for mounting purposes. I've been seeing B.W. Teal lately in all their breeding color glory. Sure would like to have one on the wall.

Beautiful images nicely done!
