    I like how he's turning into the space you left him. Good reflexes and capture.

    Howdy Gary,

    Very nice BIF, great capture and I love the lighting on him/her, and the light in and around the beak.
    Take care,

    Craig

    Ok heavy EG1... continue climb to 400 foot... beware of descending traffic coming from the west and have a nice flight to your next watering hole.
    :D Just couldn't help it. It looks so much like that. :D

    Nice photo. You seem to have been ready for such a shot.

    Such a plan is paying off for you so very well out on your south 40 thumb.gif
    Maybe its time I buy a uv/haze filter or some such and stop fiddling with
    the lens caps. Its just that I've somewhat of a dislike for em netted over
    time. ne_nau.gif:D
