Winter Jays
2018! The start of the new year in the Northeast is snow, wind, and bitter cold. With temperatures below zero, I captured this Blue Jay visiting for some breakfast. He was cooperative and perched long enough to take several pictures in the wind and blowing snow.

Morning House Finch
Several House Finches visited the bird feeder on a cold sunny Winter morning. Included are two images I like because of the light and the action/emotion of the birds.
Photographed handheld with the Canon 7D Mark II and the Canon EF 100-400 MM F/4.5-5.6L IS USM lens through a window. Post-processed in Adobe Lightroom CC.
Thanks for stopping by today!

I took the Canon 7D Mark II and the Canon EF 100-400MM F/4.5-5.6L IS USM lens for a walk a few weeks back. We have a pair of Pileated woodpeckers that live in the neighborhood and I see them frequently when walking my dog, but of course I never have my camera or cannot get very close with the dog. So most weekends I spend some time by myself looking for the Pileated...with no luck to date.
On this day, the sky had turned overcast and the background was gray and muted. I came across this Downy woodpecker and followed him for ten minutes as he flew from tree-to-tree looking for food. At times I was able to get within ten feet and capture some descent candid images.
