Thanks. The last one is a major crop... 2000mm lens, perhaps?

Thanks, gang. Ron, if he were looking at me, I'd be the prey....
Don't be the last of the Houston area crew to shoot these guys, it's a real hoot!

Great action Bruce! All are terrific shots, but the first where it looks as if he thinks your lens is going to be a tasty snack is my favorite, although the fish shot is also an amazing capture.
