It took me a few minutes of trial and error to get this photo up. The image will not be posted if it does not end in .jpg.
Unfortunately the site I use (fotopic.net) gives my photos addresses that do not end in .jpg. I tried adding it myself and it still wouldnt work so I eventually posted the image to a seperate site where the address ended in .jpg. If someone has a way of avoiding this problem please fill me in.

Hello
I use a site called http://www.flickr.com/ (http://www.flickr.com/)
hosted by yahoo (free with limited upload)you can post images there and then to this site. I was using image shack but you have to edit your photos to less than 1 mb before you can upload them. With Flickr you can post different size images, thumbnails, smalll,medium and large. My avatar is a thumbnail from that site, I took it last year.
I am gonna crop and redoo it when my quota is back May 1st. You can buy an upgrade for 24 bucks a year I am not sure what it entails. I clued into this site after viewing images from person who often posts to this site.
this line is for Andy ( Sorry Andy I still cannot get your image gallery thing working.)

I was just wondering, (Egrets) if anyone spotted them earlier in the week Near the Don Valley South of Bloor Street.
A guy I work with says he spotted some large white Heron like birds (qty 3) in a tree near the Don River south of Bloor street. Saturday Morning.
He thought it might have been an Ibis.. I was going to post this on Tuesday after he told me but I thought I would wait to see if anyone had seen something similar first. Thanx Napper I will send him the link to the photo's and see if this is what he saw.
