Nice series there for sure!

I was at the renaissance faire taking a picture of a Jack Sparrow impersonator with my daughter and while I was focusing he asks if my camera is a Cannon. I said yes it is, and he replied with, that is the best thing to shoot a pirate with you know!

Thanks Jeff. When I perfect the yard birds, maybe I will be more inclined to search harder for birds further from home!

Thanks Craig. I actually set the tree in an upright position away from the house for the birds having withdrawal symptoms!

Thanks Al. I miss having them around. They had much more tolerance to be photographed then most species. Still plenty of images to be processed.

Thank you Cheryl. I still struggle to get sharp images. I know it's me, not my gear!
