Thanks Pat. I'm about 3/4's of the way through Green Cay. I didn't think it was such a great photo day, but I took over 350 shots.

WOW! That is a chunk... good job!!

Thanks Pat. Had to go back and take the Passionflower with the D7100. This time I stood in the street with the Tamzooka instead of on their grass like I did when I used the Coolpix S3100.

Two Ospreys flying about. That Tamzooka sure gets heavy holding it up over your head after a while.

Excellent shots, as usual. I started out shooting hand-held, but it really aggravated the tendonitis in my elbows, so use the monopod now. It is great for static shots, but not so good for BIFs. On the plus side, I've nearly convinced myself that this justifies a new body for my 16-300
