Driving home from church, I often get a "bird" fix. Decided to share. Just a few birds picking up lunch (I go to a late service).

Changing places: may be less inhabited by intruders with white lenses.......

The obligatory landing........

A nearby fellow diner, less obvious, harder to see with the tricolor "look"

Fly away, fly away..........

    Thanks, Shakey,

    They were at F 8, not much DOF. Interestingly in working up the Tricolor one in the air, his wings are tack sharp, and his eye is a bit soft, as I remember. I did a lot last night, but that was interesting to me. I even questioned whether to toss it and decided not to.:):

    I know the shutter speed was high enough I could have gone to F 11 easily, but I have had good results with F 8 in the past. I don't want too much DOF.

    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!"
