  15. Magnificent!
    No need to try black & white on those splendid pictures... The bird did it on it's own! LOL!
    The first one is a must!
    Cheers, Shawn!

  20. I had no idea that when I used to hear someone affectionately call another "you old coot" that it was such a beautiful bird. Your shots of him are just gorgeous.
