Very nice, Yes I have 4 hairy's and two downie's that frequent the yard. And right now a flock of Evening Grosbeaks each day but they are very skittish... gona have to try out a new blind from Lenscoat

Ive had a good selection of yard birds today, and every shot i took with the camera resulted in a birds butt jumping out of frame...not off to the best start haha

Ha that happens sometimes... I always say look right though the camera not into it... lol sometimes I forget the camera is in front of my eye. I'm not sure if shooting left eye makes a difference as my right is completely covered.

Not often I get all the bird in focus....

holy detail!!!

Hey Jeff! Which Lens Coat blind are you trying? I'm looking at a few options and would love your opinions

Beautiful Grossbeak! A species that maybe once a year stops by. I have that Lenscoat blind, like it, would be great this time of year
but in summer it is way way hot but I think they have a thinner one out now for your balmy conditions Ha!

Perfect in every way. You have the magic of proximity.

Snowy Owl

Not a lot of snow around, despite being January 1.
This snowy owl finds a patch from which she can look down and around.

That first owl shot is great!!

This is how my day went with the yard birds...even the red shouldered hawk was the same pose haha

High stepping! Love the composition. That bird is very confident in his striding!
