    What a show! It was indeed a very active day at the "basin". I'm still sifting through images of that day.

    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!"

    All great shots, Jeff and I like the narration. But I'm with Harry -- the Red Tail and Commorant shots steal the show. thumb.gif

    Jeff --- Nice shots. Are you sure that last one is a cormorant? Riding that low in the water and spearing the fish looks more like an anhinga to me, but they're not supposed to live around here. Did the top bill have the cormorant hook? --- John
