Went back to a local conservation area that I had not been to in some time. With last year's drought the marsh was in very sad shape. This year we have been getting close to normal rainfall and the marsh has responded.

The nice thing about the 300 f/4 lens is, while it's main purpose is to bring those far birds closer, you can use it as a sort of macro lens too.

When the "main purpose" presents itself you have the tool you need!

    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!"
