Very well managed timing, Amy. I like the angle of the shot.

Wow Amy, this is real close. I did get a close shot of a bird in action. Don't miss to see it Day after tomorrow. :) Probably mine is not so close, lets measure pal. ;-) Remember "Day After Tomorrow"

Wow guess i have been watching too many movies lately, most of my comments have mentions of it.
