The last of my beach related photo backlogs. This was also taken with the 70-200 L. There were an amazing amount of birds on the beach this day. Take a look and let me know what you think!

Another beautiful sunset in Naples, Florida. Birds were out feeding once again. And I was able to capture a few decent shots. Read the full post for more!

Looking North towards the Naples Pier.

I can’t tell if this is a Western Sandpiper or a White-rumped Sandpiper. The Western Sandpiper is one of the most abundant shorebirds in North America, so I’m going to go with that.

A Ruddy Turnstone sits on a pylon.

You can tell its a Rudy Turnstone by its orange legs and short black bill. They get the name “Turnstone” because they scower the beach turning over small stones and shells looking for food.

I believe these Ruddy Turnstones are in their breeding plumage? Or close to it. I have seen on in their breeding plumage and its quite vibrant.

The same group of birds from my cover shot. These Willets were hard to get into a decent composition. They love to turn their backs on you.

A Royal Tern sits on a concrete pylon.

Pelican heads south as the sun sets.

I stalked this White Egret for quite some time trying to get a shot of it feeding. It would turn away from me and walk up the beach every time.

A more majestic pose, looking for fish.

Not the best sunset, but still beautiful.
