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!"

    Harry - I agree on the "Cooter" image being cool and different. I also really like the Snowy ... all excellent as usual.

    Have you noticed that the eagle's head is on backwards? rolleyes1.gif

    Nice set, Harry. Love that Grebe shot, his little snack is almost as big as he is.

    A few recent captures? I would say at least several recent captures and good ones at that.

    I really like the Snowy, just floating above the water like that.

    Great set Harry. I love the red shouldered hawk. The lighting on it is very nice.

    Thanks Mike. That hawk is a regular and it has posed for me numerous times these past few years.
