I am quite sure we have a pair of these birds living in the general neighborhood and see one or both occasionally, but unfortunately it is only very occasionally. I may or may not get another chance . . . You both picked the pair of Egrets. I think I prefer the single, and almost didn't include the pair in this set. Overall, across the three sets, my current preference (thinking in terms of which I might go ahead and print/frame/hang on the wall) is for the Yellowlegs(?), the single Egret, and the Egret Pair. Nos. 5, 8, and 7 in the set. stan -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
