    The mink is so cool! What a great find ... sort of like a "life mammal"

    The GBH is awesome! Okay ... The Canada's breed like a mallard duck in your area?

    Beautiful set of shots!

    Looks like the verdict on spot metering is a go. I have not used it yet as I just use the wheel and guess for exposure compensation.

    Thanks for sharing these winners!

    I was standing on a rickety bridge looking at an out of range RTH with an equally out of range Kingfisher when this Mink was slinking around near the base of the bridge. I laughed at the other two and got my Mink! wings.gif

    Thanks, Glenn. :D

    Great shots.
    I also like the mink, but the other shots are good too.
