Well done Steve.

Thanks very much everyone for the kind comments.

Dusty, thanks for popping in. As you can tell my astro work has been almost non-existent lately. It's getting harder to find birds these days so I'm hoping that starting this fall I'll get back out at night more often.

Tina, yep I wanted something more contemporary. I hope you're doing well and not working too hard. Great to hear from you.

Those are indeed wonderful shots, Steve. They are such nifty birds in the first place, but the poses you captured are out of this world. Well done.
