BTW, why do I have to confirm every single like in a new window now? Is it only me or a new feature of the website?

I like its attitude. Nice shot, Cog.

Great results considering the conditions.

Out first thing this morning in my kayak and the call of nature happened upon me. I paddled my kayak into the reeds as much as I could and stood up ( not so easy). There was a Harrier about 50' away coming right at me. Grabbed camera and prayed for a pic and no splash. LOL

Just realized wrong thread but too lazy to move it

I really like the firs one. Warm light on the bird with a dramatic dark sky as background. Well done, Noreaster.

Unfortunately not only you.... I really hate this change!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hmmm... probably hot weather or tired(?). In this case the "attitude" is hardly "altitude". Nice photo anyway!!

Although I have only mistakenly liked something once since this change, my fat fingers don't mind.
I appreciated my chance to correct it

Craig has posted that this is a “Java glitch” (i.e. a bug) that will be corrected. He did not state a date. @becceric is the only one who likes the “Confirm” step .

No, it's one of the moments when the bird is shaking and cleaning its feathers. One can catch interesting moments during this process. Here's another one from the series, a few moments later:

Thanks ISv. In that case, I'll change the word “attitude” to “look”. He looks angry.

Well, I'd like to consider myself a rugged individualist, but my friends generously consider me "unique".

Todays Black-crowned Nigh Heron... And a lot of Japanese White Eye (or if you prefer Warbling White Eye). These guys were all around the water, I took so many photos... I got even one practicing it's Halloween attire (I choose the out of focus photo because it better fits to the idea )!!!

Very nice series, ISV. The last one is hilarious.
