The Reach
The finches have been all over my yard fighting it out with sparrows and swallows and the occasional cowbird. Anyhow, I caught this male finch near the ground.
First, the fence then the he hops to the blade of grass.
Hops to blade of grass
"Mmmm, I think I see something I like."
"I'm going for it!"
"Got it!"
It came out a tad soft, but it completes the sequence.
If you look carefully you can see a small seed in its beak.
I am not sure if this is the same one, but on the same day after the sun had come out I found this male finch munching on a catepillar. All, and I repeat, all of my shots of him eating the caterpilar came out soft. :pissed But I was able to get him after his meal. If you look carefully, that little green speck on his beak is part of his dinner.
I wish the angle had been better in the above shot, but it still has some merit. Thanks for looking.

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!"
