[Leica] IMG: Black-crowned Night Heron

[len-1 at comcast.net (Leonard Taupier)]

Doug,

Almost-Tame or not it's still a beautiful photo of a beautiful bird.  
The projected slide must look spectacular. And it's pretty hard to  
use a camera strap with a monopod and a shoulder stock mounted long  
lens.

Thanks for another beauty.
Len
