Nice shot!!

Thanks Rick. Shot it out the back patio door. Kind of a cheat shot on my part. Didn't have to put my shoes or a coat on.

Thanks Mike. It was easy to count as I have each species in a separate folder. I started last March with a goal of finding 100. I have three month left but the last ten could be a little harder. I am hoping we have a few more migrating birds stop over when I am around this winter. Even so the 90 is a good number for me.

I have every confidence in you

I absolutely love this style of ornaments. Brings back very fond memories of Christmas at my Grandparents. Those older ornaments are still the best.

Put one in the win column, I just received this today. I actually submitted the picture last February and had forgotten about it since then (Insert old guy memory jokes here). They told me it was for my Snow Geese picture but I actually had to look back in my files to make sure what picture I had sent to them. I was told there were 7000 entries so I am very happy with an Honorable Mention. This let's everyone know that somewhere you may have that one shot that others will appreciate.

Great job and a great photo.

You know they say the memory is the SECOND thing to go.

Nice one Alan

 

[Alan]

Thanks Everyone. I appreciate the kind words. And Don I don't remember what the first thing was but of everything I've lost I miss my mind the most.

Thanks guys....I was really surprised when the e-mail came this afternoon. As I said I had totally forgotten about it.

Came home to find Santa driving his train from the neighbors yard towards my mailbox. If he hit it he might be on his own naughty list.

 

[mikew_RIP]

Well done.

 

[Marilynne]

Congratulations on honorable mention. Great shot!

Merry Christmas To All....... Was looking forward to a quiet day tomorrow as all the family is coming here on Saturday for Christmas. That was until my daughter called to see what time we were coming to her place tomorrow morning. Guess I missed that e-mail. Anyway up early tomorrow morning after all and off to see Christmas through a child's eyes.

Hope everyone has a Wonderful Christmas.......
