LOL on the power boat, Burd.

Duc, thanks for the comment about Big Hook. I actually had to do a bit of work in Elements to get it like that. There was just the weakest little bit of sun on the branch, her head and the fish at the time. I'm sure these birds know that lighting is critical to good photographs and they time their arrival to coincide with the worst it's been in hours. I'd been perched on a cold, wet embankment for two hours whilst the whole nest area was bathed in the most glorious light. Sure enough, as soon as the shadow took over, she arrived with the fish. Here's the original image.

Kim, you'd be most welcome.
