Christmas won't stop my birding photography plans, in fact I relish going shooting Christmas morning because the crowds are at home unwrapping their pressies. <br /><br />Those Pintails are dashing and I don't care what anyone says, I think the Great-tailed Grackles are fascinating.

Thanks for finding it...Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16410931608759550932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7172285466289881050.post-40380106350201734562012-12-07T16:54:21.357-08:002012-12-07T16:54:21.357-08:00Can you really frolic mellowly?

I am once again New England-bound for the holidays and completely ready to torment my family in freezing cold weather so I can look at stupid birds.
