really enjoy this shot…. the red is very vibrant, nice job capturing the action of the birds, and the clouds are crisp against the blue sky.

I really like the clarity of this. I have to laugh at the birds though, they are a bunch of pigs when you feed them, and then all they friends come. Watch out for their deposits! lol..

No Kidding!! I was just there for the first time this fall and I got a few shots!!! I have a couple of Eagle shots in my pictures. I didn’t realize that the photo was taken there. :) How funny. Take Care, Brion.

Hope you treated yourself to F.E’s.. You will love it! The food is great and super cheap.. The deal is.. You must buy at least one cocktail to order any food.. The place is huge and has some really great bands too.. Much good hiking around there too if you like to do that.. :)
