Hi - well winter approachs were I live and many of the birds are moving on it seems.
Pelicans are all gone, Egrets haven't seen one for a week, Spoonbills - all gone - looks like I will be practising on the ducks for a little while.
Spotted a couple of commorant's this morning hopefully they might stay for a while at least until I get a chance to practise on them :)
Bit lucky I guess I live 3 1/2 hours from the nearest ocean so have to say I have been surprised to see the pelicans on the river for as long as they were, they all made great practise subjects.
As this is my first year photographing the birds in the locale were I live - I am just learning about the visting patterns of the various species - all great fun.
Cant wait to see if there are any new arrivals during winter.
