OK, they would be better if I had a spotting scope, but dang! I got some serious photos today.

I was sitting in the sunshine, letting the summer’s last rays warm my aching muscles. The birds were ten feet away, in the shade. I zoomed in on them, but I had sunglasses on and I can’t “see” what the zoom lens sees. I just had to hope that the lens did what it should do: collect all the light and focus on the subject.

I don’t have to wait for film to be developed (although sometimes I miss that step). I had “instant gratification” instead.

Song  Sparrow in the bird bath. I called it a Fox Sparrow in FB but I think it is really a Song Sparrow.

Oh, seriously? Silly finch!

I love birds. 🙂
