I think I'm moving down where you live, where you be zactly?
All birds eat/raid others nests and eggs another reason for momma to sit in the nest.
Don't let Fuzznuts have the job of guarding the nest. :-)

This lens your using is it about 400mm and on a tripod/

I'd say you've found your true calling, Barn!

thanks! now if it could only pay the bills!!
you don't know fuzznutts,, they should be more concerned about the dog!
elbert: i'm in maya beach, bout 1/2 way down the peninsula.
the lens is a 300 f4. being it's 13 years old, it crops to 450mm on my digital body. for these i am using a monopod.
