Welcome back. This week
I
take a break from gardening (at least writing about it) to share some bird photos from the Winter and also this Spring. As many of you may know, I participate in
Project FeederWatch which runs each year from November through April. It is a large and important citizen science project in the US and Canada. I also participate in the
Great Backyard Bird Count which is a worldwide 4 day count each February.
I enjoy capturing bird photos. It is challenging and requires patience for sure as birds are on the move constantly. Sometimes we get lucky as they will seem to stay still for a few moments, almost posing for the camera.
I have included several highlighted Amazon links for your shopping convenience if you are interested in a new camera. I am currently using a
Nikon Coolpix L830 which I have been very happy with thus far. It is easy to use and the photos are good quality. There are many other
point and shoot cameras as well.
Enjoy the photos:
