Birds

I have learned alot this year about bird photography. It's not easy, but it is exciting and rewarding. This Indigo Bunting has been on my list for awhile and I finally got one.

The most fun was setting up my blind next to a Bluebird nest in Camden State Park. They would dive bomb me every time I'd show my face outsidethe blind.

Getting the birds to come to the backyard is great! The Rose-Breasted Grosbeak and American Goldfinch were two of my favorite captures.

The Cardinal population must be increasing or else it's my attention to them, whatever the case I am getting a pair almost every day at the feeders.

Prairie at it's finest

First off, after I first started this blog back in late August '09, I fell ill and spent some time in the hospital. I am better now and on the road to recovery. Unfortunately, updating my blog in the meantime has not been on my priority list until now. It's hard to remember the details like I wanted to record at the time, but I'll do my best to fill in the gaps from then until now.

The prairie in Camden State Park once again was alive with color this late summer weekend. I led a sunrise walk out to the priairie and came up with a few very nice images. It was very nice to spend time Deb and her husband along with Tom and surprise guest Bonnie from Marshall who showed up at the shelter.
