It was early spring, but the spirited members of the Nikon Cafe were more than ready to click away to an approaching avian. Here's Flew making the final arrangements for our subject matter...

Now, we can't just have these birds delivered to one loaction, so Flew made it known that a few needed to be placed in a strategic location on the other side of the pond...

Had a wonderful time with you and Marilyn, I only wish I had the opportunity to shake your hand to thank you both for a wonderful weekend. Looking forward to standing in the shadow of the 600mm lens next year.

photos so much....Frank these are great photos. Looks like everyone had a
fabulous time. I hope to attend one of these.

Great shots Frank. I thought Larry was checking the wind direction. So he would know what direction the birds would land.
