It's really hard to get in-flight photo's of this guy. Here is a try.[Users must be registered and logged in to view attached photos or hyperlinks]

I never thought about how hard it may be!

Yeah, Shelly, with my IPad it's pretty awkward. I have a really nice camera but not the know how to put those pics up for viewing on line :(. I need to get one of the kids to teach me how to post from my lap-top computer. I know I can put photos in to it, that I could send. Boy o boy am I ever challenged!

Did you find him?

No, is he low near the base of the trees? A white Too should not be this hard to find! LOL

I found him! I had to enlarge the picture a bit, but I found him! Near the utility pole near the bottom of the picture!!

Yep, Debra! You found him! When I see his wing span, I'm always amazed!

Blanca, go to the water trough at the bottom of the electric pole. Amigo's left wing is touching the trough but only in the picture. He really is beautiful while in flight and I'm determined to get some good shots!

A front facing wing spread on a stand would be a good close up for feathers. Then a flight shot gives me the idea how they carry there body while in flight.

Shelly, they carry their body very close to their chest, here is a pic of Amigo that you may not have seen.[Users must be registered and logged in to view attached photos or hyperlinks]

so more head down and you don't see a lot of tail ?


(so folks know whats going on, I am working on a stained glass pattern of a U2 in flight and Mare is helping me with a model.)

Yes, this bird flys with his head low. Let me dig up another pic.

Shelly, this is a landing shot, not in focus, and this is when I see his tail come into action. While in flight, he is very streamline.[Users must be registered and logged in to view attached photos or hyperlinks]

I am thinking ..... for the "WOW" factor, that shot of him landing really displayed all his feathers. What do you think about a panel of a Too landing , face on? I just love doing stuff that shows action and not just sitting there.

Mare this has been a huge help! Thank you.

Ok, how about this? If you are looking for action wings, I love this one but he is getting a shower with the hose so it's not very clear.

I'm going to work on getting a landing shot although I have this one, it's just one wing showing. Ok, you are forcing me into getting some awesome pics, I'm up for the challenge, thanks Shelly :)!![Users must be registered and logged in to view attached photos or hyperlinks]

I finally found Amigo in the first shot Mare. Thanks for directing me! :th_biggrin:

Love the additional shots! You will have to post a pic when you are done with that stained glass Shelly!
