Jamie Blilie, the 14-year-old son of reader James Blilie, sent some pictures a while back, and this is the second installment (first here), which includes a video of lightning. Jamie is, I believe, our youngest contributor. The captions are indented.

Great work, Jamie! Thanks!
Some really nice photos. Got the fish in the claw as well.
These are wonderful! Love the sandhill crane!
Nice work Jamie!
Wonderful work Jamie, keep them coming! The osprey with the koi particularly caught my eye.
Beautimous photos, young fella.
Great stuff, as always.
I am surrepticiously shopping for a good point and shoot for the Mrs, and this one is going on the list, thanks to your good work.
Very cool. Good capture on the Osprey with Koi. What a cool shot…
These are wonderful, Jamie. Thanks for sharing!
Nice photos, Jamie. Thanks for sharing and keep it up!
Great photos and video! Am I the only one who keeps mistaking the dove as “morning dove”?
