Thanks, Brian.  We love our rural life out here and would rather sit and
watch the birds than any TV show!

I used Focus Magic to sharpen her eye and beak because I think the focus
was more on her feathers.  That's probably what gives it the 'crunchy'
look.  I'd rather just use the sharpener in LR.  I took quite a few of
Martha and will see if I have one where the focus is on her eyes.
