I am in awe of all of you who post such beautiful pictures of birds. Even a snail would put on a spurt of energy when seeing me approach with a camera and result in a blurred image!

Reg, that's one excellent picture! Some pictures make me look "long and hard" and this one took quite some time! Thanks for posting! |

Every time I look at that bird, it looks like he is wearing a black-and-white striped necktie; I wonder what it actually is. To my eye, that image is calendar or bird journal material. In fact, there are excellent images throughout this site. |

Bayla I'm with you Bayla; HOW do they do it?!?! One way - zoom lens, very fast shutter speed and shoot in burst mode. Hopefully results in at least 1 keeper |
