Amen TD. My favorite services are usually sunrise services which we regularly attend on the water or the chukar ridge top. One of my favorite places to attend this service is Alder Bay, Vancouver island, BC where my folks spend the summers.
Two reasons I feel a bit of a kindredness with you. Number one would be that you fit my definition of a conservationist. Having been raised not only in the outdoors but as a farmer and rancher I never cease to be amazed at how uneducated many people really are to basic biology. I believe sustainable harvest is not only a key component of basic management but also the key to recruiting new people to participate and enjoy our heritage. The Lord's bounty does not come shrink wrapped at the super market. While I do believe catch and release has it's place I think many people have a fanatical, illogical approach to that. Catch and Eat wins the hearts and minds of non sportsmen and women as well.
The second thing is that you are definately a sunrise service kinda guy as well. Time to step down off my soap box.
I could use education on photo resiszing. I have many I'd like to post but can never seem to get the file size to work.
