Nice shots. Where did you take them?
Alan, if your question is addressed to me, thanks. Photos were taken at Kapiolani park (Oahu) where I chase that golden plover (posted before). There are tap-water sources there, one of them leaking and it's where I took the pics of the Java sparrow. It's ~100-150 meters from the ocean, in front of Waikiki aquarium.
Nice photo of the cormorants BTW!

Also sorry to hear that.... and likewise about Keji.... I love it there, and have been going since.... well..... Ummmm...... I watched the moon landing there on a portable TV :)

Don, I like your sense of humor and from now - your persistence:)! I'm attaching a pic that is in obvious violation for this part of the Forum, but I'm sure the CR guys have a sense for humor too... ("posting cat pictures on the internet since 1986"). This is a feral cat that says "HI" any time I enter that trail. Not sure it has watched the moon landing but age versa looks like that (Hey, I'm 64, soon 65, I mean I do not try to offend any one here!).

Like it Jeff but for me personally I'd prefer a little more background.

Silhouette - Black-crowned Night Heron - This was a purposeful shot against a blown out sky for the artistic effect - I have a lifetime supply of Night Heron shots with normal backgrounds.
Thanks for the feedback.

You're not in violation, the bird is inside the cat.

:LOL::LOL::LOL:! It's why I like this side - a lot of people with great sense of humor (aside of dedication to the photography and the Nature)!
Two more from the last weekend. I didn't know the Java Sparrow is so rounded in front view, looks funny... and very dedicated for the bath:)!
