I really appreciate your doling these beauties out one at a time, so we have time to build up a hunger for more in between posts. This one is right up there with your best.

Glenn,
 your images are definitely enticing me to get back into birding after many years away from the hobby.
Always lovely work!

Another very good one. Just out of curiosity, what is your ratio of bad vs. good shots? To get one high quality one like these, how many do you throw away?
