    Nice set! Great background on that Anhinga.
    The shot of Harry is great. Wearing a Homeland Security shirt, he must have thought some of you were going to get out of hand, HaHa

    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!"

    Love that anhinga and the eagle. I'd try to clone out that black tarp material if possible in the eagle shot. I think you have given Harry his new avatar! rolleyes1.gif

    Very nice set of images Dan. A shame that your visit was a brief one. The anhinga is super!

    Hey! Leave Harry alone .... I think he looks exactly how a nature photographer and amiable mod should represent. I like the last image just fine.

    Thanks Bob. That last bird is indigenous to NYC (Queens - not the real NYC) and has migrated to central Florida. It can be seen often at the Viera Wetlands.rolleyes1.gif
