The beauty of your photography is without question. Having shared in this experience, having seen you in action getting these photos, I have learned something new. Through your photos, your fellow birders actually get to see birds even better than being there. Your lens has captured more detail than my eyes could with the bird sitting just metres away! What a treat to come home and open up your PBase gallery and enjoy all over again the experience of yesterday. Thanks Gerald and thanks for bringing your mice friends who gave of themselves to make some of these photos so dynamic. Our boreal friend came 'alive' when tempted with supper. An experience I won't soon forget! 'Professional owlers' take mice.
