I accepted your comment about the rear view on the other shots and decided I can do better. So.......... I went to the lake real early yesterday and hung out for quite a while. These aren't full frontal but it the best they would cooperate for me. I would do it again today but it's raining and my gear doesn't like to get wet.
This is the same bird caught with two consecutive shots. Weird how a couple of feet more in distance makes that much difference in the lighting.
