Nice work, Dockland. I like the bird, bokh, and the color palatte.
Really don't know the bird, but it recently took a bath I assume 
(Should've used fill flash on this one)

Again today I saw this little guy. Now he can jump to a branch outside the nest. He is so curious. He was ignoring the other photographer with a black lens and was posing for me. It seems that he likes white lenses!

This! The best shots I got yesterday was the ones taken at "ground level" so to speak. It's amazing what perspective can do. I feel like I'm along with the Goose there in the water.
I tell folk we only see Red-tailed
hawks here and only in the sky so I have no experience with ID. Trying to follow some swallows I saw this and snapped it but at 800mm and 1/1000 and great distance it's very poor - still if anyone can help with ID I'd appreciate it.

What's up duck?!
This wood duck mom and her ducklings were captured from a position very close to the ground level. Different perspective.
R5 + RF 800mm.

I've never see a Little Egret with deep salmon-pink lores before. Apparently, it's a sign that it's in an excited breeding state (R5/1000mm).
I managed to get a better shot of the elusive Cetti's Warbler this morning at 1000mm/R5. It suddenly appeared for a few seconds in a shaded position and I was set up at at 1/3200s for BIF in bright light. It has taken some post-processing to get something out of it.
