Hi all,

We love our birds and love to photograph them up close whenever possible. Our cameras let us capture intimate poses and detail that we usually just can't see with our un-aided eyes, and this lets us enjoy them even more.

Red-bellied Woodpecker:

Those are really nice, I never get the chance to get shots like that. Little birds are never still. The detail in them are great, and super sharp.
