    Hi folks;

    Thanks for looking at the Curve-billed Thrasher.

    Cheryl, the white spot is actually a drop of water, I'm sorry I missed it as it would look much better cloned out as you suggested

    Best regards

    Uncle Gus :)

    Hi Gus,
    You've got another great post. I think it's perfectly sharp w/ a nice crop.

    Nice one! It could stand a little brightening, but it is lovely as it is.
