    Well, you know the old saying, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder". Good work, Mike.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Thank you, they were fun to study and photograph into adulthood, they stayed on our slough until they undertook they're long flight south in the fall.

    Thanks for the comment Tony im glad you liked them. It's funny that such a colorful chick turns into a dull black and white adult.
