Went to the rookery at St. Augustine today, but found myself lacking motivation. After all, you've seen one egret, heron, blumpkin, you've seen 'em all. I decided it was time to challenge myself, so I went after the highly intelligent and elusive Mallard Duck

I promised a Bonus BIF for Harry, and here it is. Bah, who needs egrets when you can have vultures

    A mallard hugging an eggplant???? :nah Won't never happen. I'm glad to see that you are keeping busy out in those egretless wastelands of yours. You're doing pretty good considering what you have top work with. rolleyes1.gif :poke

    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!"

    I suppose I should admit it, I miss the challenge of having birds pose for me. (maybe I'm jealous:cry ) Oh, to see an egret. There ain't no egrets here.
