Thanks, Margaret. Yes, I have been visiting the Conowingo Dam. It's that time of the year. I'm still in search of that one shot that has eluded me over the past 7 years. I don't know what it is. I'll only know when I see it. I haven't been as often as compared to previous years. Word has really spread and it's often difficult to get a place to park and then find a decent spot to set up. Especially weekends. Fortunately, I can go during the week. I've taken so many photos it is a task to just sort through them. And, as you might expect, many look alike. And my image file size is about 40 megapixels.

Here's a juvenile that I took on Tuesday. Looks like a zoo photo but I assure you it was only a 15-20 feet away. I prefer to keep a little distance in case he decides to give me a present. I generally pass up most still or "portrait" shots.

Have a nice weekend .......
