From my backyard

Another overcast and rainy weekend so far, so I decided to just sit out in my backyard and see what I could see. No blind yet so I'm either stuck shooting from over 30' and cropping heavily or putting up with what's willing to visit the feeder in spite of my presence. Even so I need the practice and managed to get a few decent photos.

Nice job. Just sitting outside will help get the critters used to seeing you.

Thanks Beekeeper. I sit out back for a few hours every day when the weather's not too bad. There's a couple of bluejays and cardinals that will hit-and-run but they leave as soon as I try to swing the camera on them. There's also a hawk that sometimes hides out in the bushes but he (or she) is extremely elusive.

Nicely done.

Very nice series, wish I had your back yard!

Thanks. It's not much of a yard, but better than when I lived in the city.
