My husband's father (93) can remember when there was a bounty on chicken hawks in Minnesota. Maybe $.10 he thought.

Quite a picture, Soapweed! How many shots did it take to get the wings outspread?  Recently I was trying to get a picture of a pileated woodpecker digging a deep hole in the ground at an old rotted apple tree site. Everytime I clicked his head was back underground!

TimH, my parents were canoeing and some birds began aerial attacks- so much so they almost went in the drink! But being bombed with

froglegs- that's a strange arms race.
