Good thing you told me about the Avocet.
Its been a long time since I tried to memorize a big Audubon book. Mostly by just looking at it until the pages wore out.
The DFW area welcomed the rain, but we have been a little too blessed.
To me it just means they have shut down access to the lakes.
Oh well, I have two boats to finish.

I have to say I occasionally feel arty, but don't have the talent to pull it off, except by accident. Then I don't study photography to try and gain the skill.

Know anyone who wants a Graflex? I have one with splits in the bellows so it has never been tried.
