    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!"

    Yeah, it was a bright sunny day... not good for egret's.
    Went back out today for our "2nd Saturday" program on shorebirds. While we were out an Osprey flew right over us and just hovered. I got shots, but it was too far away with my little camera. But what and awesome sight!

    Hagerman is really a nice place for migrants. And it is not that well known except among birders and wildlife enthusiasts in the N. Texas area. I too like number 1. Keep them coming.
