"Oh my, I didn't even know there was a little fishy in my pouch." Wonderful shot, Shalu!! You surely are able to make your photos come to life.

this morning was one out of the box.
Clear, cool, overcast but brilliant light. The birds were out in force and the air was full of tunes and much flitting about.
But this one took me by surprise and landed on a gate about 6 feet away and entertained me and her suitor not far away

I guess you still have to eat even in the rain, and now I know why the sunflower seed feeder is going down twice as fast as the other seeds.

i see a lot of birding in the next while(since i can't golf yet), so off i go for an eye exam. not so much for spotting birds, but more for when i'm editing. it's pretty bad when you have a 32" 4K monitor and you have to squint, lol.
