Step 2: Strike

Step 3: Savor

3. Thanks. Actually, it's kind of hard to not be around birds in this area. So I was quite
happy the other day when I was able to get some white tail deer and coyote photos for a change.

2. Fantastic photos!
I'm constantly amazed by the skill it takes to photograph birds (and other wildlife) well. And not only did you get a great photo, you got three. Very well done (photos and captions).

5. Thank you. I always try not to stress the wildlife, but the fellow wasn't very skittish
and let me get pretty close.

9. Thank you - it was really funny watching him work it back to his throat, even if I
did feel a twinge for the fish and its "WTF" look.
