The Nature Center.

Off work early, so I took a walk at the nature center. It's located 2 miles
from the international airport in Saint Paul/Minneapolis.

Thanks Harry. I'm hoping to get back there this weekend with the big lens.
The herons and egrets are really shy around here. The 200mm just isn't enough.

Thanks Jeff.

I was lucky to get the "face" shot of the snail. They move so fast, I normally
only get butt shots when shooting them.:wink
