[QUOTE="hark, post: 214353, member: 13196"] Marilynne and Pretzel, I really appreciate learning which bird this is. There were 3 women sitting at a nearby picnic table asking me if it was a grebe. Of course I had to tell them I didn't know, but when I got home a looked up [I]grebe[/I], I knew that wasn't it. Another time when I took some photos of sailboats, one of the boaters said it was cool an [I]osprey[/I] showed up in one of the photos. Again, I had no idea what one was until looking it up. Guess I'll be learning more about nature through photography! ;) Oh--Marilynne, thanks for the comment about the [I]cormorants[/I], too. My mother asked about those other birds, but again I didn't know. I do have a few bird books buried on a bookshelf--time to get them out! :) [/QUOTE]
