Four wonderful images Robert. Congratulations!
The rwbb image is sensational.

[Robert Amoruso]

Thanks to all. I had only been trying to get that RWBB image since 2004. I finally got it last year in 2009 which has probably one of the worst years at Bosque due to them not planting. With the lack of action after the cranes and geese left, I sent more time looking for other stuff to photograph and worked these RWBB for over an hour and it paid off.
