		<description><![CDATA[We had a winter storm here on Monday night.  Tuesday morning I was leaving for work, and 4 ducks were in the end of the driveway. We are about a mile from the river and other sources of water. We see waterfowl flying throughout the year, but rarely in winter.  Most of the water close [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This photo is taken through the window, so it’s not the best. This hawk sat in a tree right behind the red shed for quite a while.&#160; I didn’t have the camera handy though, so by the time I was ready, I only had time for one shot!&#160; You can very clearly see the markings [...]]]></description>

No one ever contacted me from the Michigan CoonHound Rescue despite my repeated emails, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We saw a Northern Flicker in the yard exhibiting some weird behavior. It was eating ants, it hung out for over an hour.  However, sometimes it would lay its wings flat across an ant hill or something that it had found in the yard.  Here’s some photos. In the picture to the left, you can [...]]]></description>

I’ve worked the last 13 days in a row.&#160; Today is my first day off.&#160; I’m glad that little stretch is over and now my summer can really start.

I’m only about halfway through reading the book.&#160; Steve and I are both very interested in learning more about digital photography and particularly in wildlife photography.
