I know the pain of having the camera die mid-trip, but it looks like you nailed some excellent photos anyway. Sounds like a fantastic trip.

I grew up in Northern Illinois, but didn't become a birder until I moved away. Still, we visit at least once a year - more often twice a year and often drive to Northern Wisconsin from Northern Illinois when we are in the area in the summer. I'm putting Horicon Marsh on our places to visit for the next time we head to Wisconsin from Elgin. Thanks - I'd never heard of it. Oh - and the story about the net lady - I have a similar story about an artist who admonished my children to not touch his art. They had no intention of touching it - I guess he'd met kids that did touch it and assumed all others would do the same. Horicon Marsh sounds like a paradise.
