I heard people overhere talking about this beautiful bird never knowing how it lookes like. Now I know it's fantastic and your photo's are all golden shots again. Have a lovely evening
Oh Bob...I thought I was following you a long time ago..well...I wasn't.
These set of shots is superb. The first one caught me and I was taken by surprise. Suddenly there he was looking at me with those dark eyes... The details, the resolution...BOB, i have no words to talk about something PERFECT!
