These little guys are hard to hit. Managed one or two.

Here's where they live.

    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!"

    Thanks for the comments.

    Harry, they are interesting little buggers. Unfortunately they tend to live in places that are rather inconvenient to get to. There may be some places in the Northeast or Canada that are more accessible. Up there are plenty of ways to get at where they feed but it takes a darn expedition to get ashore near any of their rookeries.
