Doug,

Good to hear they are repairing the truck.  Hey, if you have some extra time 
swing a bit south through Iowa, and maybe we can go shooting.

Cheers,
Gene

Thanks for looking, Jim.  This species has always been difficult to get 
close photos, I was very fortunate to find these birds.

The other truck - the diesel horse-hauler - is the one that got tree'd.

The insurance company wanted to write it off as a total loss but I objected 
and repairs are under way.  It should be ready for our road trip to 
Wisconsin next month.
