Born with Wings
Two Captures of a Bird House Near a Flower Field
This is one of the first times out with my new camera and lens. And I’m so proud of myself because I used my tripod. I never use my tripod. I like the results.

For the Birds
Wildlife photography is so hard!

Shy Birds
Hiding behind leaves, turning away…I just couldn’t grab a clear shot of these guys!

Far Away Birds
Every once in awhile I try my hand at photographing birds, and they are usually too far away for the mediocre lens that I have to get anything super clear. It’s still fun to try and see what I get though. They are a challenge to capture for me – flying around and hopping from branch to branch so quickly!

Marshland Bird
There’s a marsh near my home that I like to go to a few times throughout the year because it changes depending on if the caretakers have recently cut back the grass or reeds or how tall they have grown since last time I was out. The water level fluctuates as well. The bird life can vary too.
This week I went out and stood in the same spot for twenty minutes and took a couple dozen images. Ended up with 12 keepers, enough for 7 posts. 🙂
I used five of those twenty minutes on this bird alone. He was really far away, so mostly what I got is a nice silhouette of him.
He sat on that branch forever tweeting away. I stayed on him though, because I was determined to get a shot of him flying away. And by gosh, I did!
