I've always admired photographers who have such patience with wildlife...this is an exception photograph...regards....David

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this one David!  Yes, patience and a very low keeper rate!  Best regards

that is a great capture Phil...like us it probably dozed off because it ate to much...heck, it couldn't even finish off that last little bit...lol

Yes, thom, nothing like a little nap after a big meal ... for this guy seems a little dangerous though 'cause he might leave himself vunerable to predators!  Thanks for the remarks!

I couldn't help visualize a kitten sitting in front, licking its mouth and saying 'Purr...fect' ;-)

Yes Ranga, my concern exactly!

You are an amazing bird photographer!!!!!  Of course, you have the eye for good composition, but your ability to capture the essence of a bird is remarkable.  I speak from experience having tried many times and failed at all.

Thanks Lynne.  Your remarks are much appreciated.  Of course you must know that you must take many, many images to come out with a few you are happy with.  My recommendation is, if you have the passion for it, keep trying, it will come.
