Thankyou Dahlia and Duc and everyone, Wasn't Duc's hummingbird pic incredible!
All the pictures were wonderful, everyone gets applause.
Speaking of that contest --
OK Duc just between you and me, what did you have to do to get those cute little fawns to
play the parts like in Walt Disney's Bambi to get 3rd? in Wildlife?
That elk I photographed, I had to promise a lifetime membership to
Lodge 2524, you know its the Forks, WA Elks Lodge just to lay still
and not get up and gorge us only 25 feet away. And he did, just chewed a
little and we got some pics and moved away ecstatic and observed from a safer
distance. In the park there were warning signs posted of elk attacks guarding
territory and herd. It was very cool.

Pic: Attentive listener, I was story telling, again. I liked the purplish patch on his head-- I don't think its a camera glitch.
PS the sweet tooth was a Black Capped Chickadee and Resin said they do that- made a believer outta me
after the second and fourth time. So help me if they start looping like crazy and hover I am going to start wearing a helmet.
