Very nice!  I really like the red necked grebe, and the horned grebe in the second shot looks funny on the ice.  Well done.

Right on Walter. A beautiful set; love the variation of colours in the backgrounds. Btw, could you identify the unlucky fish in the third shot?

thanks every for viewing

it was too far away even for a 600mm lens.  I am still poor therefore I only have the old manual focus lens.  Everything was manual focus.

Look like a baby sun fish or rock bass

very nice shots, the fish that he's holding in the last one you just posted is a goby, they are invasive species that have come over on boats from asia and europe. Props to the bird for helping us weed them out  :D
