...well, not exactly, as I did post one shot in the Egret Fest thread (hope that was ok :uhoh ) Thought I'd introduce myself by showing a couple of my birdy shots. :):

These were taken last month during one of my visits to Gatorland in Orlando, FL.

    Very nice shots!!! The reflection is great, but my favorite is the second shot. So sharp... and I love the tree and the branches in the background. Even the slightly shadowed lighting adds to the whole shot. Very, very nice!!! thumb.gif

    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!"
