    Nice images! I like the first shot of the Cooper's Hawk. It looks like a Thrasher to me.

    Good! thumb.gif

    I'm almost sure I'll have one by the spring. wings.gif

    This is what I've been longing for...as long as it lives up to expectations. Imagine shooting ISO 1600 and have the image look like ISO 400!!!mwink.gif

    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!"
