One old adage about photography suggests that you should
always try to "get closer." One way to do that is to use a
long lens. Another way is to actually get close to your subject.

So with that in mind I took these pics this morning.

WOW!!! Bret you have outdone yourself! This pic: http://www.pbase.com/bret/image/81673031
of the sharpshooter is absolutely AMAZING! I've seen pics of them in
National Geographic and other nature magazines, but this one is by far
the best. Of course it's always a joy to see Spike! Fantastic shot.
You have a great talent to shoot wildlife where even a snake or creepy
insect looks beautiful. How the heck did you ever shoot that
chipmunk? They move so damn fast!
Bruised, bitten and beaten with the heat yet you still are out there
working! I tip my hat to your diligence and hard work and superb
shots!
