Really funny! Good timing of the photographer!

Beautifull done, Peter.

Lovely images of those Storks, Eddie, and a very pleasant color and rendering.  What combo did you use?

Thanks John. These were all shot on tripod at base ISO with the D3s and 300/2.8VRII with a TC14E II in between.

Love those Storks Eddie, lots of them here in Portugal now, they were almost extinct in the 80´s but have made a great comeback. Some of them stay all year and no longer winter in North Africa.

Thanks Sayanda and welcome to Nikongear! Same over here in the south of The Netherlands; a great comeback and some of them also stay during the winter.
