Geez Wayne, why bother going out for walk with all this in your backyard?? But I can relate as I've got plenty going on here too...

Nice set of shots, the subjects themselves are pretty common but you did a good job of capturing them IMO.

What is the EXIF info on the first two shots? Both shots seem to lack sharpness a bit but it doesn't look as though the shots are OOF, it looks like lense shake got the first one, and maybe motion blur on the head of the blue jay. I'd be interested to see if maybe that's something you can tackle with different settings or not.

The Chipmunk I really like, the expression is a nice capture that kind of gives me a feeling of curiosity which I like. I might have made the shot ever so slightly wider to capture the entire tail, or cropped out the tail entirely, but otherwise it's really good work.

And bugs... I just don't like bugs. Nice shot though ;)

Great Bluejay and the chipmunk is ***perfect***. What a great shot.

Love the Blue Jay capture. I don't think I've ever seen one captured at that angle.

Always nice to see mother nature in your backyard! Keep feeding them cause you'll see more in the coming weeks.

Wow! Those are some fantastic shots! I want such an active back yard!

Although the dog might like it a bit more than I would...


Thanks for looking!

Nice chipmunk shot, we have them around my house too. They can become nearly tame if you take your time and feed them.
