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!"

    Oh thank God Harry, I thought you were going to show shots of 50Cents, P-Diddy or Snoop Dog, I was relieved to see you were showing raptors not rappers. Great set here Harry, love them all, very interesting to see the young and their actions.

    Great shots. I so envy you being relatively close to lots of raptors and you do such a fine job at capturing them.
