Not my best day for bird photography

IraRunyan

When I got up this morning I glanced into the backyard and saw a flock of Cedar Waxwings out there. I went and grabbed my camera, but by the time I got out there they had departed. I set up my camera hoping that they would return. I waited several hours, and during that time I must have seen in excess of 200 Cedar Waxwings, but did not get a single decent shot. They always seemed to land in bad lighting or too far away. The day was not a total loss for I did manage some captures of other birds.

You Florida boys are spoiled!

Interesting set, Ira.

Not a bad day at all! You have some fine shots there.
I know what you mean though, rare opportunities are hard to come by. I think the Waxwings are gone around here and I wanted to get some photos. But so time consuming....California, like Florida has some fine bird places, and it's hard to stay home!

Really like that red bellied woodpecker!

You Florida folks are spoiled indeed. I've only seen two species of birds in the past two months

Penguins and what else?

I don't know about spoiled. Why, some of our birds have already gone North for the summer :cry
