Great shots Glenn. It won't be long now, I saw a shot of Breckenridge Ski area on TV the other night and the snow is already moving down the mountains in Colorado.

Thanks Steve! That trek across the pond was worth it for the shots you got of those Orange-bishops. I saw one this weekend but it was not in a good spot for me to shoot.

Thanks Steve! I wish I had used a flash on that shot, and upped my shutter speed.

Thanks Jeff! There have been alot of reports of bitterns as SJWS but they are a little like the bobcats, and make appearances when you least expect them!
