My wife and I went to find it, and it was listed as a reasonably easy one, but the guy who planted it, a retired FBI man, is fiendishly clever and ten minutes searching the obvious bush was to no avail. So I went back to the pond and took a few pictures. I don't know if this fountain is new, but I don't remember seeing it before. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1002425-2.jpg.html They're always posing on those wooden posts. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1002428.jpg.html Shot toward the sun http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1002432.jpg.html A take-off. It looked like this bird was a quadruped but I thought there was no way a focal plane shutter could be that creative. Finally realized that the bird had a companion behind him. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/herbk1/L1002433.jpg.html Herbert Kanner kanner at acm.org 650-326-8204 Question authority and the authorities will question you.
