Took this one two days ago, he was checking out the seed/mealworm cake.

For these birdie captures I was using the 70-200mm lens at an aperture of f/2.8

I took this through window glass.

Thanks in advance for your comments.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

Wonderful focus here Sandi and he's so pretty even if a bully.

This seems to be the best yet of your captures Sandi. I like that the feeder is blurred out a lot. It looks really natural.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

Totally awesome capture!! Maybe I'm overlooking something, but I would have thought you used a much higher F stop to get such a nice tight focus though.

Incredibly beautiful bird and capture, but I find it really odd that they give long names for small birds 😊

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
