They were sure some hunts to remember Dave with outstanding recoveries. That's a really nice little flower button. We are waiting for winter wheat and hay to be cut here. WTG & HH, Q.

Nice finds HEAVYMETALNUT!
 

KILLER VIDEO! GREAT Music!

I have to ask, what brand and model of camera do you use? I like the auto focus on it. Mine, I have to focus it myself (by moving my hand in and out), and sometimes I don't quite get it right, if I'm catching glare from the sun on the screen.

What were the dates and types of your other 2 coppers?

Cheers and Congrats,


Buck
