    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!"

    These are really nice Ric
    Ok, I'll help with identification: 1st: small...2nd...smaller....3rd a little bigger....some help I am. Nice clarity and comps on these.....what lens are you using.....should save up my pennies and get a much longer one.

    That first shot has all the "right" elements to my eye. Great colors and the eye is vivid. Sweet.

    Thanks, Antonio. :D

    I have a monopod.....but it seldom gets used. All handheld...I've learned to press that camera hard against my face. Not good for the camera with that oily nose of mine, but it works.rolleyes1.gif

    Really great shots, Ric. Those little birdies are hard to shoot. Great job on that catbird shot in your other thread as well. Excellent depth of field in that one too.

    Great shots, especially the first.

    I'll help with identification - the first two for sure are LBJ's
