Nick, I think you hit the nail on the head with your list. I would like to add one more to the list if I may :

What a fun post to read - I smiled, I laughed, I know the feeling - failure comes more often to some of us (not that it does to you !) than others
Now to your successes - wonderful shots of the GGO ! Another spectacular bird and #3 is my favourite but that was tough to pick from this excellent set.

Great pictures, Nick!
#2 is my favorite.
Words of wisdom that are very true due to bad experiences in the past by most of us. I should be somewhere on the top list with bad experiences.
