Some of you may or may not know that Ginger and I traded lenses.

    Beautiful John. ylsuper.gif Love the bokeh in those shots. The 300/f4 and 1.4 Tc was my mainstay before I got the 500mm.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    I never knew they sat still. I thought that they flew themselves to death. :D

    I like 'em too. Very nice, especially being able to catch them on a twig, in a natural setting, as opposed to on a red feeder. Having taken many shots of them this summer, I really appreciate what you've done here. Hat's off to you.
