I *had* to try to show up Colin
this dude (the bird, not Colin) was lurking around the back pond. made things tricky to shoot because of where he was standing and the thick, high grass/reeds growing along the pond.
these were some of my better shots. cannot WAIT to get my real lens back in 4 weeks!
not as great as Colin's, but the fun part is stumbling upon one of these and watching it slowly wade and feed on the fish.
