    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!"

    yours has four eggs. I hadn't noticed the eggs in my picture until I loaded it on the laptop.

    I got one doing the broken wing thing but he is too far away for a good picture.

    I thought the second was better too thanks.

    I tried to get a pic of the broken wing trick as well with only marginal success. Part of the reason is because I took the pics with my old point and shoot.

    That is a nice shot. The pump adds some character to the shot.
