    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!"

    He was so happy with his big fat hopper that he was willing to let me watch. I waited till he was done pushing the frog down before I slammed the car door to get a flight shot.rolleyes1.gifmwink.gif

    That's a great capture!
    Wish you had taken it a seocnd before or after, so the post would not be merging with the bird's head.

    Lucky day for the bird and you both:)
