A few birds from our back yard feeder.

KIT: K-3 with Pentax 67 200mm f 4.0. This is a nice prime lens for birding on crop sensor cameras such as the K-3. The field of view of the 67 200mm when mounted on the K-3 is approximately the same as that of a DA 600mm lens, which means that with a good birding blind, you can get close enough to fill the frame and do away with severe cropping,

they are getting bigger and losing their cuteness! But gaining in their tastiness perhaps?

not tasty - but closer to egg production...

Mmmmm, Eggs! I make a mean soft scrambled with local cheeses from our farmer's market. I have too many fisher cats, martens, foxes and assorted weasel like critters to make raising chickens something I am willing to do after my son's experiences years ago, and I would love to have fresh eggs all year around.

Here is a 100% crop of some ladybugs I took with my DA 50 1.8 this afternoon. I can't let the ladybirds out yet since the weekend is going to be below freezing with mixed sleet and rain and there is nothing for them to lay eggs growing yet. I still have at least 100 in the house after losing many to an extremely late spring. We are normally Ice-Out by now on the lake but we are not even close yet.

Please excuse my horribly dirty windows, spring cleaning starts downstairs and I don't want to kill any ladybirds.
