    Isn't that amazing, Don! I know what it feels like to be waiting a long time for a good capture. We caught glimpses of black bears, but no decent capture for the past 15 years until this past fall. Sweet when it happens! Best, Pam

    nice image Don, none for 28 years, maybe cause there's no trees out in Saskatchewan :-)

    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 Brian !

    That would be true if you didn't count poplar and willow, at least on my ten acres wings.gif

    The true forest starts about an hours drive north...

    Thanks Harry !

    I was quite pleased with the result considering the lighting conditions.

    Cheers, Don
