Ibis, that's the youngest I've ever seen a Sandhill as well. VERY COOL to be able to catch it!!!!
Lin your photos are always stunning. I think Blue Jays might be one of the handsomest birds on earth.
Mika, I've seen bats & bats & bats and more bats & never saw one that wasn't in flight (except at an educational thing at a sanctuary where the lady was holding the bat). I wouldn't even attempt to try to catch one on film; they're so FAST!
