Thanks Linda.

I have provided downloads a few other times when somebody asked about results from a particular camera or lens. Don't get used to it.

I will be printing a version of this for an album I did for our community of 182 homes. I believe it now has over 30 different birds in it.

How wonderful! Is there a common building where it is kept (e.g. recreation center), or will it be passed around, or will you spend your children's inheritance on printing?

I think, his children's inheritance.

PH CIB

I have four feeders out with sunflower seed and suet and also a heated water source, besides birds, I get deer, raccoon, opossum, chipmunks in the summer only, feral cats, and a variety of Hawks that like to feed on the birds at the feeders, when the feeders are empty it usually means a Predator is near, costs a couple of grand a year for feed....Great Picture !!!

Once I had about 60 pictures in it I handed it off to a neighbor. There is a note in front to pass it on or return it to Abby. I give her pictures to add as they come up. Once updated our mail carrier sees that it gets around. I have made prints for a few people, but since my name is not anywhere in the album most don't know where it came from.
