    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!"

    Thanks Skippy, those raptors are something to see. Being able too get within a few feet of them was awesome.

    If those raptors came calling you wouldn't have all those sparrows in your backyard. :eat

    Thanks for sharing these Harry. It's not often we get to see these birds up close and personal, let alone beautifully photographed! It sounds as though you had a great time this year.

    Thank you very much. It was a great time this year, lots of photo ops and a really great group of folks. You can't ask for much more.

    Harry, great shots! I especially like the shot of the eagle - but the shot of the hawk is really beautiful, too! Inspiring!

    I actually bought my camera after seeing the first eagle I've ever seen (that I recall) - not just around here, but ever.

    I love birds - - thanks for the great idea. I just looked and there is a Raptor Conservancy nearby. Thanks!

    Thanks very much. It is always a thrill to see an eagle in the wild. No matter how many times I see them it just gets to me.

    A conservancy center is a great spot to get shots that would never be possible under normal conditions.

    Harry, those are magnificent. Just shows how much more efficient a shorter lens can be! thumb.gif

    Thank you Al and it was a joy to shoot these subjects with shorter glass.
