I used to joke that being OCD helped me in my job. If there was a difficult technical problem I'd obsess about it until it was fixed, a trait that made me very effective.
On sabbatical, though, these tendencies are not quite as helpful. It's similar to when I was a kid, without enough to do. I had a little Kodak disc camera, and would spend hours on our porch trying to get good pictures of hummingbirds.
If you know much about photography, you know it didn't work out so well. Somewhere in the storage facility (hopefully not at Amy and Bruce's house) there are lots and lots of pictures of blurry hummingbirds.
Well, here we are 20 some odd years later *gasp*, and I'm back to my old tricks. Except now I've got a better camera, and it doesn't cost me anything to take the pictures. Hence, the hummingbird gallery.
Enjoy.

I personally like your hummingbird pictures, and it could certainly be worse ... it could be panoramic pictures of clouds ... :)
Can't wait to read about Sydney's exploits!
Oh the panoramic pictures of clouds are coming - my new camera will paste up to 3 shots together, showing you where to focus each time. We just have had either no clouds or nothing but clouds so far.
NICE BIRDS!! You always were good
at accomplishing whatever you set
out to do... Remember the one you
caught in BVL??? Good going!!
