Yeah, I like the picture, for both its humorous composition and its technical excellence. It's just that for historical reasons I was expecting a dog. Bob

More like a stake. : > : > I seem to remember a GBH in either a Bret or a Rita shot, with the moniker : > "Spike." : : There for a while there Bret had a lunch-time model that was a GBH called : Spike. He had several good photos and then the wildlife commission came and : rehabilitated the bird or so I've surmised. They were good photos except : for the nail (spike) coming out its neck. GBH's are cool. One of the most : graceful birds in flight to see. They "rehabilitated" him because he used to mooch lunch from Bret? I don't recall that, and I'm not sure it passes the believability test. Bob
