Thank you Click. This is by far the closest and best shots I have gotten of this cute little bird. Even got it in a Juniper bush.

Still managed to get a few pics of this girl this morning before it started to rain , AGAIN.

The heat has hit us (40 degree C highs) and the water bowl in the garden is attracting some birds. On Friday last, I finally managed to get a few shots of a young skittish hawk who has been frequenting the water bowl.

Thanks. I hope to get him to understand that I don't mean harm so I can go around the front and get some shots. Also waiting for smaller birds to show up. A few cats have been visiting our garden and I guess that adds to the tension that the birds feel.

Actually having a fuzzy background enhances your subject bringing them to the attention of your viewers. That is a beautiful shot.

I should of said noise. Looks fine small, enlarged beyond 5x7 and it looks bad/ has bad bokah.

Cliff may I suggest you try DxO Prime noise removal?

I was a little startled today when I found out that Owls start out as Mogwai.
Hopefully they don't feed it after midnight.

Thanks for that. Guess I've lived too sheltered a life, it's anew one for me.

When are you getting your 1DX2's? I'll be looking for tips.

The dealer emailed me on Thursday saying Canon Canada should be getting them on the 5th, so barring any further delays late this coming week or early the week after.

I stripped the tripod thread out of my last 1DS MkIII on Friday too, I had to drill and helicoil it!

Beats me how you're about the only person on the planet who hasn't damaged his EF 1.4/50

I am excited that a Flicker is making its nest close to me. I will enjoy peeking in the front door as the family grows. Stay tuned...
