What made you feel good today

Ordering CS5 for £160 odd 

Can't argue with that...

As long as the odd doesn't come to £469.

If it does then it's my dads fault, he put me up to it

I had an amazing weekend at a friend's cottage on Georgian Bay. One large tree at the side of the cottage attracted, Blue Jays, Chickadees, GoldFinch, Nuthatches and  a Downey Woodpecker. On the lake itself were Red Necked Grebes.  and Cormorants. With the occasional Turkey Vulture flying overhead.  The Cormorants and Turkey Vultures were too far off to get decent pics though.

Is that the school version then. What checks / requirements do they do / have?
I was saying to my languages teaching wife that she really needs to buy latest CS version fpr herwork at school when she was telling me about being able to buy Office 2010 for an admin fee. She has not actually needed photoshop yet but could do

Never heard of My Little Chickadee? A film staring Mae west and W C Fields from 1940. 
It's a small common songbird belonging to the Tit family, mostly in North America.. Have a good week off.

Hope this works, Chicadee:

Sweet little bird, guessing we won't see any of those here in the UK. nice shot Spinner like it. 

[SimonW]

It looks a lot like a Great Tit.

[ABERS]

Or a Longtailed Tit

[spinner]

Perhaps it's the result of North American prudishness. There are no 'Tits' in the bird books of Ontario or Canada. They do however list 5 subspecies of Chickadee. This is a Black Capped Chickadee, but I do agree it does look very much like the picture of the Great Tit I found on the internet.

[SimonW]

Yes...   I've just check Wikipedia: These birds are called either "chickadees" (onomatopoeic, derived from their distinctive "chick-a dee dee dee" alarm call) or "titmice" in North America, and just "tits" in the rest of the English-speaking world.

I meant to say - it's a great photo, by the way. They move so quickly, not easy to capture.
