[QUOTE="hark, post: 685420, member: 13196"] Three from yesterday. I pulled out my 300mm f/4 PF after not having used it for a while. I thought perhaps I'd miss my Hoya HD CP filter (it was the one that broke and sent to Hoya for warranty repair), but thankfully I didn't need the CP filter. The colors still came out amazing. :) Last month I was surprised to see robins at the local park. According to people who walk there regularly, the robins live there year-round. We usually see them in our neighborhood from right before New Year's (or sometimes they don't show up until into February) through August. The last one I remember seeing in our yard was either late September or early October this year--and for them, that's pretty late. But I had no idea they lived in the area all year. Tonight we are supposed to get down to 13 degrees F. :eyetwitch: I hope they will find a sheltered place for the night.
