Here is one of a very busy Gannet. She was very busy flying back and forth over us at the Rookery gathering seaweed to build her nest. It is a magic sight, we have already been twice in a matter of weeks.
And one of a Crested Tern at Marlo.
Excellent Cath and Shane.......Love both these birds, don't see them very often though.

and that is an accurate description, my shutter speed = 1/3200

Once again, some nice images. Loved those Egrets and of course the Pelican. Adding some from my collection:
Great selection everyone. Tassie love the eastern curlew. Headsie i also love the pelican shot its stunning.
I just love the pelicans around here
This photo was taken Wednesday 16/10/2012 at Woolgoolga. I'm not 100% sure of identity yet.

I love No3, the Silver Gull almost looks as if he is standing still. Great shot.
M-L
Great photos everyone. Birdie I love your pelican eating and Headsie I love your pelican too. I think my first one is a great cormorant because of the white and yellow on the cheek and white under the bill. It did swallow this fish. My second one shows lots of different water birds, some migratory, at Stockton
Here is my great cormorant
I've had a really busy week so finally contributing here. Mainly seagulls. I don't get to the beach often.
And a Little Tern

This juv osprey was practising his diving for fish by swooping a tree and grabbing leaves. Unfortuniatley I had to shoot into the sun but it was great to watch.
Still a great shot Headsie. Well done.
