My image processing has been seriously backlogged due to a shortage of time & other priorities but I'm starting to catch up on the backlog.

A few from the rookery at St Augustine

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!"

    Great shots Harry.
    The spoonbills didn't really come out to play when Kate and I were there last year.
    Looks like I'll need to visit the area again someday.

    You don't need to go to Bosque, you have your own wetlands in your back yard. :D These are all great, but that first one is exceptional clap.gif

    Thanks Dan. A few years back when I was making plans for my trip to Bosque Linda asked me "What is there to photograph at Bosque"? I said "sandhill cranes". She then led me to our front door, opened it and showed me a pair of sandhills looking for food on our front lawn. rolleyes1.gif

    It sure does Andy but only during mating season. Outside of mating season its a rather dull subject. I love how its iris turns red during the mating season
