Geeeze, excellent shot Gary. We had them on the farm too, and I knew about the trick and could still never find a nest. :)

Thanks Bill

The low angle seems to help the shot.

They will make you think you could catch one but they are quick when they want to be.

The low angle is what drew me to the shot.
