    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!"

    I shot the Magpie at a rest stop on the 101 freeway on the way to Morro Bay. There were about a half dozen of them. Glad I still had my lens to shoot with! I think I'm the one who has to work harder! rolleyes1.gif

    Great shots, Glenn. It must be a thrill to participate in the banding sessions and get that close to such beautiful birds.

    Any chance we can get you out to the Salton Sea shoot next month?

    I saw your thread earlier, and thought about it but February is a busy month for me. I have the Arthur Morris IPT the week before you head to the Salton Sea, and I have some family stuff after that.
