<p>This past weekend brought the Eastern Carolina Wildlife Art Festival to Little Washington. Along with the paintings and duck decoy carving were the Dock Dog competitions featuring lots of spirited retrievers and their owners. I like the concentration on the faces of both the woman and her dog (this dog actually won, I believe, with a jump of 23 feet!)<br>

<p>I haven't been contributing very regularly here lately, but have been trying to view each week's contributions. I always enjoy the great photos I see here each week, and this week is no exception. Great shots as usual. I've been photographing mostly Winter songbirds recently, but this past week I have encountered a couple of birds of prey while out on my rounds. I have a couple of Red-tailed Hawk photos and one of an American Kestrel with his captured prey to submit today. All three with my 7D and the 70-300L iS at the full 300mm f5.6.</p><div></div>
