Actually maybe it could be "every weekend". Yesterday (Sunday) I went down to a local park where there were about 70 ducks and 1 HUGE goose. About 30 of the Ducks and the one goose were congregated on the shore of the pond eating what must have been an entire loaf of bread left by a previous visitor. I sat down on the grass in the bright Sun at 4:00PM in the 26F Degree temperature and took a few shots. The big goose saw me and started walking toward me. I just kept shooting till he got about 8 feet away, halted, turned around and sauntered off. I wasn't sure for a moment if he was begging for food or wanted to drive me off! Anyway, I was using my [ Postwar :-) ] IIIc and 50 Elmar. Hey -- I'll do the whole thing with LTM cameras! ( I could use the CL -- but -- you know! ) Mark Hammons
