Finally got a woody...
« on: April 13, 2010, 08:22:58 PM »
Each bird seems to have a new set of challenges. I think I can do better then these but I'll need a tripod.













A few other birds.

From the new Sigma 70-200mm that was sent to me by a buddy!!  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Great shots Mike, what lens are you shooting?  Love the colors

Man I looked at these on a PC and they look pretty bad. Not sure what happened here but they don't look like this on my Mac.  ???

er Mike, they have prescriptions that help with that.  ;D  Nice pics.  I love the one of them on the log ... would have been even better if the hen had her head up.  The solo shots of the male are great as are the ones showing just their heads while walking through the grass.
