    I think he looks a bit stiff!

    Nice sighting, Jeff. Amazing what you get if you pay your money these days. Wonder what one could get for 10.00.

    Now a trip to Florida might get you an eagle.:):

    I imagine that my elusive buddy and his wife are still at the wildlife area, where ever. And that is just a dollar.

    But it is cold here, and I am tired of walking after that sucker just to see the gorgeous shots come in from Florida. I can't talk myself into that windy cold walk right now. It is warm compared to some places, here it is 20 something with the chill factor. But just can't do it.

    Now, if I could pay 5.00, we could compete for the best soft/hard/stiff eagle on dGrin.

    Why would you need to wait?

    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!"
