Ready to pounce
Izzy spotted some kind of little insect. Shortly after this she pounced and missed. She would be hopeless if she had to fend for herself. I have only seen her catch a bird once in two and a half years and even then she dropped it with excitement when she saw me and the bird flew off.

  Good thing she's got you, Ann. LOL. A very cute shot of Izzy! As for me, I recently underwent a total hip replacement but I'm back on the mend!

  Oh, she looks like she means business...tensed and intense on her mission but I had to laugh at your commentary on her bird catching abilities! I have one like that, too - also a female who does all the appropriate stalking, gets close but in the long run doesn't have the finesse to do it right...thankfully. I'm rambling on here, Ann - let me congratulate you on an excellent portrait and wonderful Finalist of Izzy in (in)action!!! :)

  Receiving an award from Better Photo is just like unwrapping a gift, the thrill is always the same! It is also exciting to be able to send my personal congratulations to each and every one of you and I look forward to seeing the gold though out the galleries. Merna
