I've been seeing migrant birds passing through Chicago the last few weeks. Night Hawks have been on the move at dusk but the light is too low to get good photos. And lots of warblers here too.
well...I went out to test my new Olympus OMD EM5...and forgot to charge the battery. so it ran out part way through. so then I used my little Canon SX260...
Maybe the geese will migrate out of our neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteYeah...good luck on that! Lol
DeleteThat made me laugh! They never leave, especially if people feed them. lol
DeleteBeautiful photos of the storks/herons/egrets, very captivating.
ReplyDeleteThese photos are all gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteLovely series of photos... Migratory birds are not really that common over here in Sydney, we get them, just not in the numbers or types...
ReplyDeleteMines up as well at AussiePomm - Sydney Olympic Cauldron Alight (again)
Have a great WW!!
we along the coast here in NJ are right in the flightpath of a huge migration, south in the fall, north in the spring.
DeleteAwesome nature shots!
ReplyDeleteWow! Great ones. Those reflections included enhance the pics.
ReplyDeleteGreat pics and love the bike rack! :)
ReplyDeleteSometimes I wish I could be a bird, but then I realize I would have to hunt for my food every day.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful series, it's looks like an amazing place.
ReplyDeleteNice! Wildlife shots are my favorites.

Looks like a wildly calm place to be... Enjoy the migration. (What camera are you using, by the way?)
