Cannot believe I put up a very bad photo and no one commented on it. LOL
Anyway I got rid of the baby sh*t background and did a quick cleanup...
Anybody got any negative comments shoot them my way. I personally like them.

I am just killing time Girish. Rainy season here. I usually only look here for ideas. It has helped me tremendously. Not interested what so ever in the main ho hum threads for posting.
On a side note I just booked a 5 month hop to India. Will be there Oct 5th if all go to plan.
That way can explore during migration. Birding is my main hobby but I am getting into wildlife ( animals ) and India will be my first hop with that in mind.

Beautiful shot Gary. I'm off to Sabah next week, should find these guys there and if I do I'd be extremely happy with any shot close to that.
