Snappers

While at the the old railroad station, I turned around and saw two snappers in the marshy area

[Paul Myers]

I don't believe I've ever seen a snapper. too dry out here.

great capture!

[Harry J Benson]

@webfoot Thank you Paul, you just don;t want to get to close to them
@orangecrush Thank you Jerry, these are the first that I have seen this year.

[Jennifer B.]

Wonderful catch, as they can be speedy little things when they see people.

[Harry J Benson]

@jjsooner thank you Jennifer, 2 seconds later one of them was gone

[Chelie]

wooow! nice shot Sir Harry! great composition and framing...snappers are cute!

[Harry J Benson]

@chelie Thank you Chelie; cute to look at and see, but you have to be careful not to be bit.

[Jenn]

Nice catch Harry!

[Angie Vega ☮♥ シ]

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Good catch. Nice!

[Harry J Benson]

@shutterbugger Thank you Jean,
@angievega Thank you Angie,
@mittens Thank you Marilyn,
The one reacted to the click of the shutter and took off in the water before I could react, Next time instead of taking the camera down to look at them I might be able to get one entering the water

Really cool find!!! :)

[Harry J Benson]

@scooter Thank you Scooter, I was just looking around and there they were

[Beth]

Nice capture. I like the reflections in the water too.

@vernabeth Thank you Beth, the reflections were a bonus.
