Here are a few shots from my self-imposed bird feeder shooting challenge. I think I’m going to set up a little blind with our ladder and an old tarp or blanket of some sort and see if I can’t get closer and get some shots of the other birds that visit. On this morning, only the chickadee and tufted titmouse would venture over with me standing there. Eventually I frightened them off as well with my presence.
I cropped all of these to square format to rid the photos of the distracting pole the feeder hangs from.
Great shots of them, though. They are very flighty and quick. I've not gotten a good shot of them yet. A blind would help greatly ... BTW, I need to buy some more bird food! :-)
awwwwwwwwwww I love my bird feeder as a source of photo's!
( to bad I have not filled it in ages LOL)
I sometimes site in a chair about 20 feet from the tree with camera ready and they eventually get use to me bing there, just don't move fast LOL.
Birds - our little feathered friends. I only recognise the top one as Coal Tit (in the UK). I think that's right anyway. Keep it up.
that teal background goes really well with the colours of the birds themselves...
All the colors flow very nicely here its soothing in a way.
Love your critter day photos. You have great pictures of very fast flitty birds.
Such amazing colors and a great capture! Nice job!
These are lovely photos Micki. I gather the top one is the chickadee and the other two are the tufted titmouse? I don't know if we get either bird over here but they sure are lovely little birds. Do they both sing?
What a cute little fella, MUCH more adorable than flamingos. :p
These are really lovely, Micki. :-)
I never really appreciated how skidish birds are until I went looking to photograph them. These are very nice. I love chickadees.
When I grow up I want to take images like you do :).
There is a certain something in your work that just makes me enjoy veiwing your images day in day out. Your consistency in posting up one awesome image after another to tell the truth is annoying (yes me jealous) LOL
Oh well, one day I will take such continous amazing pics like you do
Suby
A bird watcher also? You're just full of talents. Great shots.
How perfect are these photos! Love them!
Nice to see these guys so close and personal!
Oh my.... I love this pictures Micki :) nice!
Just beautiful Micki! I love the 2nd "head on" shot. Wonderful!
great series of these lovely birds, well done.
I have a bird-table standing just in font of my window-kitchen too. Only one robin and some blue-tits come feeding among a bunch of sparrows. I took some shots of them but not so close.
Lovely shots Micki and a good bird shooting challenge.
Love the colors here, great series!!
This is a fine series of shots, capturing the character of these feathered friends.
very nice series...i like the bird feeder...
