    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!"

    Amazing. Great shot! GBHs are my favorite birds.
    Please ignore my opinions! And if I ask for constructive criticism, please give it to me. I have really thick skin! :huh

    ne_nau.gifShe's not eating anything, Ben.

    The male has that same stick-like protrusion from under the beak. Never noticed it ever before on a GBH. My only thought is that it may be what's left of a mating feather...just a guess.

    Here he is.
