wow! nice pics there! If you could, after you poke a few, you mind sending them directions to the Eastern Shore? :thumbsup:

yea, just a few compared to what we've been seeing this year. Last year that same pond was so loaded with lessers, I swear you could walk from one end to the other and side to side without the chance of getting your feet wet. Pretty cool to go up every now and again and watch them come in. This pond is wooded all the way around so they have to lose altitude real fast after they come over the tree tops, its awesome!

Yeah, these are the greater snows, and for some reason I don't feel like they have as many blues in the population as the lessers that you guys have in the Mississippi and Central flyways. I'm probably wrong on that, but it's just something I've noticed over the years and haven't really asked about or looked into. Just my observations. It's a real treat to lay down a blue over here and if one does come in you can bet that dude is gonna die because every gun in the pit is going to be pointed his way :lol:

I must say the Nikon P 90 is an impressive camera 26mm to 624 mm has an awful reach, the same as me bolting on my one ft+ 400mm fixed heavy lens. Some super compact cameras are getting better now.
