It's a Picasa slideshow; nothing but javascript.  Weird open source
browsers with no plugins do fine.

There are even control buttons, including pause and the display
increment, down at the bottom.

I shall however be cautious of slide show presentations in future, given
the general tenor of the response to this being one!

O Mark?  Might you care to explicate and expound?

I will cheerfully confess to an objective of recording field marks with
these; that's part of what got me interested in photography.  ("what
_was_ that?" as a question with a hope of an answer.)  Artistic merit is
(for me, about bird pictures) generally secondary to being able to tell
what it is.
