Thanks Ann.  I used that as impetus to actually start my album for my quarterly 
favorites, two weeks before the end of the quarter.

 31719  the first stellar jay shot  is a real standout - the way he is

The jays are the hardest of the ones I’ve gotten as they are the most skittish.

Thank you Alan.

> Perhaps the Bigma would have been better for the more distant shots?

I’m pretty sure that I used the Bigma with all of the photos except the 
Turkeys.  The Bigma is a bit large to conveniently carry on my bicycle.

I had a real dilemma today on my bike ride.  I was making reasonable time and 
the same flock of turkeys was crossing the road, I was actually quite close to 
some of the chicks, and was tempted to stop and pull out the camera, but I was 
also fairly certain that had I done so, the chicks would have hurried off into 
the bushes while I was still fumbling to get the camera out of the bag.


> And what about the Blondes  Brunettes?

Blondes Brunettes?  I’m afraid it’s been a while since I’ve photographed any 
birds in British colloquial, or chicks in American colloquial.

Bird photo backlog

2021-06-16 Thread Larry Colen

I’m catching up on about a month of backlog of bird photos.  The towhees and 
especially the juncos seem to be becoming a lot less concerned about my 
presence.  I’ve had juncos land within a few feet of me.  There isn’t anything 
spectacular in these photos, but I did get a few decent ones, particularly of 
the young juncos.

Unfortunately, I’ve gotten no good photos of the family of hawks that live 
across the river, I’m almost getting to the point where I wish they’d shut  up.
