Some of you may not like that there is a man-made object in this photo, but it was just for fun. :-)

OMG, what a great shot, Melissa. I love this one. How did you get this guy to pose so nicely in a tea cup?

Thank you Matt for your very generous, and uplifting compliments. I truly appreciate the kind words. Actually, I've posted images fairly regularly. I'm guessing you might have missed some of them.

I try, Mike, but I don't get in here as much as I'd like anymore, and with the rate at which this thread moves, I miss a lot of people's work. Usually I pop in and view the last 2-3 pages, but it falls way short of the 20-30 pages that pass since the previous visit. It's probably the same on your side, I don't post as many photos, they get lost in the torrent, you must have missed them as well :-)

I think this works fine. The goldfinch cooperated very well with you. Nice shot.

I hear ya Matt. I try to keep up everyday but, it's almost like a job. I'm sure I miss some people and really hate to do that. I'd really rather be out shooting with camera or gun, than sitting behind my computer most of the day. Anyway Matt, thanks for your response, and keep on pushing that shutter button.

That's either a very small bird, or very large cup, Mel... If the latter : milk, no sugar please! ;-)a

It may not be everyone’s cup of tea ( :p ), but I think it’s pretty creative !
