Things have been rather slow here due to weather and everyone coming down with a nasty head cold. Finally managed to make it out to Magnolia Plantation this week. I'm a little rusty, but managed to get a few.
I think the known issues are taken care of. If you have any issues or know of another member who is having issues, PM daytime dave. As we head towards the holidays, hunt with your Henry.

Silhouette shots are wonderful.

Re: Clovis' 2025 images
I'm thinking about writing an illustrated children's book. I think I'll call it:
Freddie the Frog Has a Bad Day
And a few more from today's outing.

Re: Clovis' 2025 images
I was standing on the bank of the swamp and was hearing a small squeaking noise coming from below my feet. I looked around in the vegetation and discovered the tail of a small garter snake in the grass. I stepped to one side to get a better look under the grass, and saw the snake struggling to get this good sized frog down. I took the time to swap over to my macro lens and closed in for some close up shots. The snake wasn't happy about me taking pictures, but I managed to grab a few from different angles.
Turns out the frog wasn't the only one having a bad day. However, the heron had an easier time of swallowing his tasty little crustacean.

Re: Clovis' 2025 images
Headed back over to Magnolia today. Things seemed a little quiet compared to last week. Tried a few birds in flight pictures. Did better than I expected, but I really need some time practicing. The great blue herons were nesting, with dad ferrying sticks to the nest, and mom carefully incorporating them into a space for the coming little ones.

Re: Clovis' 2025 images
I agree with Dave.
Outstanding... in - on - or above ... a pool of dark water.
I'm a sucker for reflections. That Painted Turtle, with its right fist ready and its head held high, is so good. And the nest building set is perfect. Love it.
