Default Oooh! Ahhh! The colors! The Colors!

Well after much soul searching and skipped lunches, I finally decided to do it! Have you ever noticed that when you see "Brown" in your driveway, the "Green" leaves your wallet and is replaced by off "White"! Had to be brand loyal with my glass so no Bigma for the kid! Played with it all day yesterday but wasn't too impressed, till last night when I read a similar story to my own here at POTN, and removed my "cheapo" Tiffen UV filter. Oh Yea!

Tried my darndest to find Daffy or Donald, and would have settled for Daisy, but these will have to do. Hope many more to come! Sorry for the save for web IQ.

Is a Coot a Duck?

Well, it is a bird!

Don't forget the RED ring around the lens.

The American Coot does belong to the waterfowl family but it is not a duck.

Nice images. Love them elusive herons.
