You never cease to amaze.

Wow they are look great.

Super series, especially the eastern bluebirds.

They just keep getting better and better Kenn....if that's possible.
Love the Red-bellied and its pose in the first....they can be contortionists sometimes.
Excellent cardinal and titmouse images too. All of them.
Your Bluebird captures rival the best I've ever seen, but I know you've got them trained so they'll pose so nicely for you -

nice series, Kenn

Thanks everybody, we really appreciate all your comments.

And thanks Randy, I do need to update our Smugmug blurb tho...

Rick - We shoot with 4 different compact superzooms now (including our old S3-IS shown at the link above). But the shots in this set are all from our SX30 which has a fixed 840mm zoom. This lens is very sharp at the long end, has a minimum focus distance of 1.4m and very effective IS. It helps us get a lot of pixels on our birds.

Very nice work.

Terry
