Jack,
It took about 500 shots to get about 15 good lucky photos like this one. PLUS, I had to give the owner some free pictures for the special treatment he gave me.

The bird show is there though March and the bird owner is not sure if the place will renew his contract. there are about 15 different birds. #9250072
