Audubon Society of Fl. has used one of my eagle pictures as the backdrop on their certificates of appreciation to the volunteers that recieved them for their efforts this year. They were even kind enough to even put a " photo courtesy of " tag in small print
Not a big deal of course but maybe it will further my cause to convince my wife I really deserve the 600mm f4:).

Congratulations BD! That's quite an accomplishment. I have yet to get any request of my photo work from any organization. Well, not that my work is worth publishing :lol:
