Dear Mary Ann: I feel honored and very pleased of my pictures being of good use to your student. I always give permission to use my images for educational purposes. I visited the page and find it is well done and a very elegant way of presenting this amazing bird. It is sad, though that your student has had a hard time watching and observing the birds. I have been observing them for hours, and watching them perch on the top of the head while stealing the fish from the pelican's pouch is a great thrill. Good luck, Carlos At 18:05 06/11/02 -0600, you wrote: Dear Mr. River-Blanco: One of my students has done a web page, on which he has displayed a copy of your laughing gull photo at http://www.venezuelatuya.com/natura/imagenes/013guanaguanare.jpg May he have permission to display the image?
