    Your shots just seem to get better and better all the time Harry and I'm sick of it! :D Stunning, like opening the pages of a good nature magazine. Thanks for sharing these, Harry.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Hey Kirwin,

    Thanks and it was great shooting with you today. I'm glad you had a chance to see those colors on the cattle egret yourself today.

    A photographer and a writer too?

    Fantastic shots all of them. I can't believe you keep getting better and better! clap.gif
    Thanks Dee, I'm happy that you enjoyed my post. I've been following your photography and Andy's and Steve's as well as a whole bunch of others and I think we are all getting better as we gain experience. Speaking for myself my own growth would not have been possible w/ the support and help I get from you and all the other folks who participate in these various forums.

    Harry, on this weekend thing, are you going to the wetlands, or the rookery?

    Or are they one and the same?

    g
    Hey Ginger,

    Yesterday I did the wetlands and the rookery and they are two very different places.

    I'm lucky because the rookery in St. Augustine allows you to get closer to the birds and their nests than any other place I've heard of so far. It sounds like the chicks you saw are much younger than the chicks I caught in St. Augustine. Those chicks do seem to be annoying. They are noisy as all heck and they just about mug their parents for food when they come back tot he nest.

    Thanks for the kind words.
