One of my favorite images from last year. This was taken at Blackwater NWR in Cambridge, MD on 18 Dec 2010.

A couple of months ago, I had the pleasure of witnessing a very similar scene. My shots weren't as nice as this one though. Good Job!

That's a lot of "snow" there kawshek; and welcome to the birders sub-forum.
You were definitely in the right place at the right time to capture that departure image. I'm sure I would have been fumbling and bumbling trying to figure out where to point the camera - :) Nicely done!
