I hate you - Cool! photographing dickey birds is soo difficult and this is such a lovely shot Thanks. You have to understand that, except for snaps of the kids, I'm pretty much single-mindedly focused on birds. All my gear, techniques and experience is in shooting them and nothing else. I suck at people pics, landscapes and street photography. I'm happy to say that I've seen a huge improvement in my own bird shots and I strive for better and better.

It's nice, except that the DOF makes it look like it could have been shot in an aviary. This one's for the birds... :) Norm Christian wrote: I promise!

looks perfect to me, especially knowing what you said that is constantly moving like a squirrel on red bull... Baeolophus atricristatus now that's a name...

RE: PESO - last one for a long time
Lovely! Don't you like it how birds return to the exact same 1 area on a twig or limb over and over again? The downside is one's body gets 'locked' in position with the camera and tripod, and fatigue starts setting in. I have exactly the same sense with this as I had with the ground squirrel. Just ever slightly too light. I still could be wrong.. Great job. Tom C.
