another day of firsts

[Mitchell]

Me and my dad went out last weekend to see if any new birds are coming up here now that it is melting and getting warmer out. We saw bluebirds, hawks, redpoll, deer, short ear owl which I didnt get a good picture of and a bunch of other birdies.

WTG!!! I love the bluebird, I sure wish I had pic of that one!!! when I come up with my new 500 you will have to give me some pointers!!!

Hey Mitchell --- I'm sure glad I admitted you and your sister into The Ancient and Honourable Order of Pole Owl Photographers!

Once again you've shown your among the best! Congratulations!

You don't think you could get your dad to adpot me, do you? Then you and he could teach me. I'd be a great big brother. The only thing is I like coffee in bed in the morning, and ice cream with chocolate sauce at bed time.

And Ann is right, that bluebird is wonderful ! ! !

Keep on posting, I always enjoy your pictures.

[Mao]

The bluebird is an awesome shot Mitchell.

Like Sheldon, I can be a great, great brother if your Dad adopts and feeds me, don't wake me up too, too early in the morning to do chores on the week-ends.

Something tells me this is just wishful thinking Sheldon - getting coffee served in bed and getting to sleep in late. Wasn't Keith a drill sergeant?:biglaugh: :biglaugh: :biglaugh:

[Delaney]

Very proud of you Mitchell, another time i didn't go though I did have a reason to stay, you know clean, what you dont like to do rolleyes;

Excellent series love the blue bird but mind you I love them all so there!!!Great Job!!!:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

[Delaney]

While your bluebird is fantastic I love the light morph Rough-legged Hawk in the first shot. I don't think I have ever seen a picture of one posted before. Quite a beautiful bird.

All great shots Mitchell. Way to Go!!!

[Mitchell]

Thank You All For Those Nice Words 505;

[Mitchell]

and I will see if my dad is ok with the adopt thing:biglaugh:

[MGlennn]

Great shots Mitchell ...... you are getting WAY too good at this :cheer: :cheer:

[Sheldon Bowles]

Mitchell, Mao and I are standing by with our suitcases packed.

Don't forget to mention the sleep in with coffee in bed --- and Mao says to be sure to mention he wants his own 600mm lens as part of the adoption deal. I just assumed a 600mm and a 1D MK111 would be part of the package.

We'd best throw in breakfast in bed for Delaney too, while we're at it. There is nothing in life more special than a sister and we want her to welcome us.

Speaking of welcoming --- really nice of you two to give up your rooms.

[Peter]

Your dad sure know where to take you to get good shots. Nice job on these Mitchell. Nice set and your bluebird is a super shot. :cheer: :cheer:

[Kevin]

Love that last one Mitchell! You done good! :)

[Harv]

Mitchell, you're getting way too good. I will now be embarrassed to post any of my pics after seeing these wonderful shots.

[Ron D]

Nice shots Mitchell, in the 2nd shot it looks like he is bowing down to you.....

[Mitchell]

thanks again every one:)
