Just Some More Cool Bird Pics

Jim and Heather: I do have sailing listed on my profile cus I used to sail all the time out of Seward, AK. Anything from a windsurfer to a 40 footer. I still love sailing, just don't get out on the ater down here, sigh. Glad you like the birds. I need to read up on you stories down in Baja. I've a friend who's done the Bajaha a couple of times as crew.

Tundra: I wish the ones here would let me get that close. The pics you have are awesome and I'm jealous of your camera :)
