Hi Wes, meet my feathered Caribbean friend, Ricky ;)
I love watching his fishing skills and brilliant diving technique for hours!
Tier: beginner
lol. These guys are so fun to watch. I have seen them eat some pretty big fish and the fish are going crazy in their necks as they get swallowed.
Wow, another awesome theme :) Glad to participate again. Here is my entry. These are brown pelicans drying their wings in Puerto Aventuras, Mexico. I love pelicans and I spent hours just watching them hovering above the beach or fishing. Amazing creatures.
This is great. I love the colors and the clouds. Great composition too.
Thanks. You know how I love taking photos of wildlife :)
Definitely a WOW shot! Remarkable!
Thank you! :)
Travelling with a small ferry to Curonian Spit always attracts a lot of seagulls looking for some easy food :) So they are flying around the ferry all the time it passes the gulf
Enjoy :)

Thanks again @derangedvisions for that awesome contest.
Tier: Amateur
This shot was taken in the Noosa National Park in Noosa Heads on the beautiful Sunshine Coast of Australia. This is a australian raven, much bigger than a usual crow.
Peace Flight
All through the ages Doves have appeared as symbols of purity and peace. They possess a gracefulness in flight and seem to bring heaven to earth. Doves are true birds of a feather because they flock together. They are marvelous to watch, flying in unison darting about the sky with fast and sometimes erratic movements staying together as if having one mind.

Love chook chook!
I must get out there and see if I can get some more photos of him. I heard the other day their 2nd year of feathers are meant to be more impressive than their first so I'll be looking forward to that! : )
Wow that would be something. It is already so beautiful.
I know... I guess we'll have to wait on and see! : )
This is such a cool photo. The feathers are like a fan. Such an awesome looking bird.
Thanks Wes, he is pretty amazing. That is his 'ruff'. There's only 2 ruffed pheasants, this one and the Golden Pheasant which is also pretty stunning! They use their ruff as part of their courtship ritual, it is pretty amazing how they have so much control over them. They can hold them back away from their face or they can bring them around to either one side of their face or both revealing just their eye. It almost looks like he is wearing a helmet, I was calling him Darth Vader at first when I saw him doing it, lol. We have never seen one before (or knew of their existence) but we have since learnt a lot more since he turned up. We are considering buying a female so he has a mate... we're not sure yet.
Level: Benniger.
Bird: Spectacled owl (Pulsatrix perspicillata)
Location: La Azulita, Merida State, Venezuela.
Camera: Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50
This beautiful owl, is known as the "Spectacled owl." In Venezuela, it is called "Lechuzon de Anteojos". An exotic species, of so many that we can get in the town of la azulita, in the state of Merida, Venezuela. This town is characterized by having a great variety of birds, especially migratory birds and its proximity to Colombia.
Great shot. How close did you have to get for that?
Very calm like 8 meters, so as not to scare him, thanks!
Platamon Greece sunrise
So cool. I got some shots like this in the bayou of Louisiana, minus the awesome sunrise.
thanks. i got up for the sunset, bird was just a bonus :D
so beatiful
Hi @derangedvisions, this is my entry to Photography Contest - Birds or flying animals Theme.
This picture was taken in Barranquilla, Colombia. Colombia is the country with the greatest diversity of birds in the world, with more than 1,900 species.
My photographic equipment is not the most suitable for photographing birds, but I try my best to take good pictures.
Tier: Professional.
awesome shot!!
Thank you so much mi Pana (my friend)
Here in Venezuela almost every town placed on a shore close to the sea is a fishing town and It's pretty common to see "seabirds" using the fishing boats as rest places but this one is a little overcrowded.
That is going to be a lot of bird poop. Sweet shot.
