Couldn't resist adding a few more bird portraits to my list. I've become quite addicted to seeing not only what we can see and identify, but also whose picture I can nab while they're there. As Moose Peterson, wildlife photographer, says, "They get food, I get a picture. That's the deal."

It's like a video game that I can't stop playing. If
anyone notices me buying so much bird food that I can no longer feed my
family, you have my right to intervene.

... and where there's bird food, there are squirrels... and this guy was totally posing for me.
Linking up with Sweet Shot Tuesday..
Great pic of the nuthatch, I just love watching them.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lori. You wouldn't believe how he made me work for that. :-)
DeleteYou made me realize I forgot to label them, so I'll do that now... thanks!
Great photos! I love the squirrel's expression
ReplyDeleteThanks, Suzanne! So true... I know he saw me and wanted me to leave so he could get to the goods. ha ha
DeleteI love birds! These are sweet photos! (I'm stopping in from Sweet Shot Tuesday--my first time there.)
ReplyDeleteHi Sandra, Welcome to Sweet Shot and thanks for the comment. :-)
DeleteGreat photos! May I ask what lens you are using...beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lizzy! I shoot with a Nikon and the lens I use for shooting birds outside my window is a Nikkor 70-300mm 1:4.5-5.6
DeleteGotta love the birds!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Paul! A trait I inherited from my father... indeed I do. :-)
DeleteLove bird photos...sneaking up on them is harder than your photos make it look! And you're right... where there is bird food, there are squirrels, sometimes TOO many of those hungry little rascals!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mrs. T. That's such a nice compliment. I appreciate it!
