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!"

    That has to be one of the hardest birds for proper exposure.

    Very nice group here, Harry.thumb.gif

    Thanks Mike. They are all over the place around here too. The power company has had a problem with them nesting on power poles and getting fried in the process while they knock out power. They now put in a pole and nesting platform next to poles when ospreys start to build a nest to give them a more attractive alternative.

    Thanks Ric, I was lucky with these shots as they light was fairly subdued making the exposure a lot easier.
