A BIG birdie told me....

I was basically screwed out of ever finding a ticket for the Vancouver show, so basically I decided to do what I do best, go out into nature, enjoy the beauty that is around me, not the beauty I would have prefered(ED), and look what I happen to stumble upon....on Presidents day! I couldn't believe it, first I saw the fly over, then I noticed where he landed, so I carefully followed, and caught these shots. Notice the last photo, there was another waiting in the tree...This is one of the coolest experiences I have had. God's way of saying...just wait....this BIG BIRDIE is trying to tell you don't give up hope, there will be more of ED (and the boys) come summer...

    Yes, awesome pictures! How did you get the close ups? Either you were really close or that's one hell of a zoom! :)

    I am totally shocked myself. I took at least 30 shots, but these are the best of all of them..

    I used a FujiFinePix S700 camera with a 10X zoom. I bought the camera on clearance, and it's been the best camera! I got those awesome Chris Cornell shots using the same camera.

    That's very, very, cool. But I don't think it's gonna get my $147.50 freed up anytime soon since 10C is holding my funds and NOT giving me tickets :rolleyes:
