    Thanks Dallas. Mike and I went eagle hunting today. We went to "his" place...but didn't see any eagles. We did see a nice BALDY circling over head on the ride home. Too much traffic on Rt. 41 to pull off to take a crack at him. :cry :cry What amazing birds. Just my luck I put the camera in the bag...and thebag in the trunk. Not even a single shot at the eagle. Grrrrr. Luck 'o' the Irish...my butt. rolleyes1.gif

    There is an open tree in the backyard. I'll just wait for a pair of eagles to take up the spot for their nest. :uhoh rolleyes1.gif I kind of like this backyard. I just had 7 ibis on my porch/backyard and neighbors tree. They walked up to me and then headed for the patio door...like they wanted in for lunch. eek7.gif I had too much lens to really shoot the gang of them (200mm)

    Cheers

    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 Harry & Steve. As always...appreciate you taking a looksee and commenting. There have been lots of egrets and ibis around lately. When is Ibis Fest?

    You kind of have to wonder about that 3 some egret shot. Get a room people..PLEASE. What's with the "voyer" in that one also. Whacky birds.
