Snow Birds
These images were captured on the same day I photographed the Northern Cardinals in the snow. I shot with Canon 7D Mark II and the Canon EF 100-400 F/4.5-5.6L IS USM lens handheld throughout the mid-morning.
The Juncos and American Goldfinches were quite abundant only intermittently being chased off by a Gray Squirrel or Blue Jay. My objective with these photos were to blowout the backgrounds as much as possible isolating the bird. A few of the birds cooperated by perching atop the feeder in the snow or on the hanger wire. I particularly like the images with the snow flakes on the bird's beak.
These images are processed in Lightroom CC and Photoshop CC for exposure, crop, and clarity/sharpness.
