    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 tried to get a good Egyptian goose shot but didn't manage it! I'm jealous! :D

    That's a fun shot of the crested screamer. They look kind of intimidating but are actually sweet. :D

    Look at all the birdies you shot. Looks like you ladies had a fun and productive time. Nice job Marina.

    Nice set Marina. My favorite is the B&W treatment of the flamingo being fed. That is quite ironic considering all the beautiful color in this series. :D

    Good set Marina. I actually find that Flamingos look a little mean close-up.
