p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Yummy Seeds

I was out in the woods at Kissena Park here in New York City and discovered there was a dirt bike event. The Parks Department had clearly marked the path for the event even blocking off many of the narrow foot trails yet this did not stop the participants from going all over the woods damaging vegetation and scaring wildlife and hikers alike. It was a frustrating outing yet I did capture these images after the bikers vanished. Both are cropped from about 1/4 of the frame so the magnification is huge.

Comments and suggestions welcome,

Morris

Very nice images of the sparrow(s), Morris. They look pretty good for a big crop.

Nice shots of these sparrows. The lighting and the background are what I find appealing in these.

Not all the wildlife is as resilient as these sparrows after the humans are finished with their destruction.
You got some excellent shots.

Thank you Karl,
Warm colors usually have a positive effect. I've been amazed how much I can get of the X-H2s's sensor.
