Nice work Leon...talking to some other folks there yesterday, they don't seem to be using the perching tree up close to the road very often...

Thks Ron- There's no limbs left on the old dead tree perch so I guess they are not to keen on just perching on the top of the "trunk".

Cool shots Leon. Bummber about the perch. My 400mm will be a little too short now.

Thks Tim. I appreciate it-wish I had not got them so saturated. The way you handle that 400, I'm sure you will make it work!!

Sweet, Leon! Is this over on the golf course? I was over there after the air show and the skeeters were ravenous....

@ John-thks, I appreciate it!

@ David-Tks, hope the lens is still doing good for you.

@ Therese-Thks I always appreciate your comments.

@ Johnny-Thks much!

@ David A-Thks, I do like the "the great white"-just wish it was 5 lbs lighter!!!

@ Bruce-Thks, Yes these were the usual ones by the golf course & unless the wind is blowing the skeeters do try to make a meal of you LOL.

@ Patrick-Thks a lot, I hope the rumor about a new nest isn't true, but it might be.

@ Steve- HaHa, no need to be jealous, just come on out & shoot some. They are beautifully majestic & great to watch even if you don't take photos!!
