Thank you for sharing. Damn - you guys have a VERY high bar! Adam - Thanks for this. The preening sequence is actually kinda comic, with the heron assuming a series of ungainly postures in pursuit of whatever it is that these birds are pursuing when they do that... Regarding the bar you mentioned, I expressed to Doug Herr last year how difficult he had made it for us regular folks to show any birdsnaps 'cause he had set the bar so damn high; his response was something to the effect of "How do you think I feel - now I've got to try to beat my own best work!" (apologies if my ailing memory has distorted your original statement, Doug.) Bob Palmieri
