Located 20 miles south of Wichita, the century-old, historic Bartlett

Arboretum is home to massive cypress, oaks and champion

Japanese maples. For nearly 100 years many generations of

Kansans have enjoyed this unique sanctuary once touted as "the

only mature arboretum between the Mississippi River and the Rocky

Mountains."

Hi Grayham and Jim.

The white crowned pigeon is a bird that is native to the islands of the North West Caribbean, I understand they have been seen in Southern Florida.   On the West side of Jamaica there is a tree line between the coast and the Great Morass, this is where these birds eat but they do not nest here.  It's hard to get a good shot of these guys, they are always up high in the tree tops and when you shoot them  the white head blends into the sky. I was lucky to find one with a dark background that better contrasts the head without losing the detail on the body. Thanks for the comments from both of you.

For those who have fought for it, freedom has a flavor the protected
