here are a few pics from last week when Shannon and I took our honeymoon in the Florida Keys. We took a day trip to Everglades National park and I was lucky enough to get these shots

Osprey 1
Osprey 2
osprey 3
This is my VERY first photo of a bird with its prey, I know its not very good, but it was soo cool to be able to see this and capture it with the camera as well
Osprey 4

This by far is my best pic of a belted kingfisher, and again the first time I have been able to get close enough to tell what the bird is in the photo.
Kingfisher

King Fisher looks like a cool bird.

sorry, I used my D60 and my Tokina 80-400mm. Not sure of the shutter speeds and such, I will dig that out later, I have about 800 pics I need to edit.

The kingfisher is hard to capture as its a skittish bird, or Im just to noisy

They are hard to get. Here is one I tried to shoot yesterday. He landed for a second on the wire but was a little to far away for my Tamron 28-300mm. Even at full zoom I had to crop this way down.



Your Osprey 1 shot is great!
