The Finches Are Coming! (and a plain ol' Junco)

[D Boone]

Goldfinches are back in my neck of the woods. Yayyyy! I love these birds. Unfortunatly for my wife, now she's stuck hearing about how much better my photo's would be if I could just get some L glass... That being said. I didn't think these were bad. Taken through a kitchen window. The first is a 100% crop of a Junco, a very common bird around here that are here all the time. The 2nd is a pic of one of our newest arrivals, the gold finches! and the last is a 100% crop of that one. They all looked better before I saved them down as jpegs for web display, but still I didn't think they were that bad for my 75-300. We also had an Indigo Bunting come by for a bite but I didn't get any of him!http://216.77.188.54/coDataImages/p/Groups/196/196466/folders/184740/1506644GreyJunco100.jpg
