Hey Tim buddy 1st shot look great w the low angle and shallow dof

like that 1! super detail in the 2nd shot and WOW 1/320s handheld at 400mm on a 40D

Exotic "coot in the grass" I would say

Nice couple of captures Tim, the detail in the finch is excellent

Tom

Thanks Tom, I had heard the geese may be there and they were, got lucky I guess. Those finches were being difficult, one finally held still long enough.

Tim,
Great capture on the finch, love the detail and that it's eating the little seeds.

Thanks

Where are the coots? We'll have millions of them in a month or so

Thanks for the words.

First one is a great shot Tim. Like the second one too, a nice behavioural study.
