These two shots were taken on yesterday (6/23/12) at Bear Island WMA in Colleton County SC.

These two were taken at 8:45pm so the picture quality is even worst than normal for me but think that ID confirmations can still be made.

:D Big thanks! Chased sightings of these birds over three WMAs for the past month or so. Almost could believe my eyes last night when when I came across them as I was heading out.
