Well, that's better than I managed. We saw several Hobbies on the Romania trip. Lifers for me, but one of the ones I didn't get any shots of at all |:(| But ... as one of the other tour participants said when I was frustrated about not capturing any Kingfishers: First you see them, then you get a poor shot of one, then come the good shots. And he was right :D So you're a step ahead of me as far as Hobbies go.
