Lucky me ,I came home and this little fellow was sitting on the power line then flew into the tree!! He/she allowed me to get fairly close before flying off.These are all crops with PP...I took them at F8...probably should have gone F5.6(would that be right thinking...lower the F stop to get the birds face a bit clearer??..doesn't help that it has a mask!!) or lower due to shooting into the blue sky.

I am impressed with your "general knowledge", besides your photography skills Orio. Thank you for broadening my horizons.
Thanks for the links on the Eucalyptus,Mo -I love the aroma of the leaves. |
