this was tried in the museum mode with no flash to try it when they where dancing on the stage, but i never got a chance to take any.

some shots of a young hawk at Lake Skinner, he was walking around the car-park for a while squawking his head off.

day 176

back looking for the Road Runners, still nothing... but found 2 new friends

i stopped in the middle of the trees and listened to find the humming birds then spotted this, fired off a few and walked back out then spotted the other.

i dont usually take portrait shots, messed about a little too much with the setting just to see?

day 177

a few from today, an accident waiting to happen, i spotted the kids doing jumps on their bikes, but when i turned around they had gone.

i am spotting this little yellow hooded orioles (according to google images) a lot around here lately.

and yet another hawk, i waited to see if he flew but.....
