Bird Hunting....

I took a walk down by Lindsay Park today to try out bird hunting...
This is what I came up with on a nice relaxing day.

I like this first shot between the two threads the most. You did well in a tough focusing situation.

What lens are you shooting with here Casil?

That first shot has a really pastel feel about it.

I like the duck in the snow! That's a sight I'll never see around here!! Poor Daffy's feets must be frozen!!

I like the first one too. Is that a chicadee? The colors of the duck are great! Then there is the 'proper' magpie. They are gorgeous birds actually.

The first little guy is a white breasted nuthatch. I used my 70-300mm lens with a tripod that I just set up quietly in the woods hoping something would land nearby. That's also how I caught the chickadee on the leaves in the second post..part 2. I like our magpies also Raiven...they are quite beautiful. Their feathers are blue MA.
Thanks everyone.

Just looked at your magpie again and I can see the blue and green in the feathers now. Very cool! Our Magpies are black and white ... no other colour hues in their feathers.
