^^^ I like the first one! It looks like the gull is waiting/hoping for food inside the bag the guy is holding.

have not been out serious birding yet with my new camera. one day soon i hope.

Makes me sad following up Senna's posts. He's good.
Here is another hummer, this one is "wild" (no feeders, just went for a walk around Iona and found him around a bunch of flowers. It started raining after this shot, so didn't take anymore. Will go back again soon!

Thanks! 5DmkIII + 70-200mm f2.8L IS II - that camera tracks moving subjects very well!

Sighting of an owl in a tree on our way back on the trails. Not the best quality cuz weather was crap and it was dark with surrounding trees.
