Just a few Redpolls..... · 11:35 PM

.......our backyard is full of birds but they are usually either in deep shade or harsh sunlight. Last night we had a big dump of snow, just after I was done cleaning the driveway and the walks the sun tried to come out but was still behind light cloud and was just reflecting of the snow a bit, in other words real good light. I went inside, put Bigma on the K-5 and got a few shots before the weather changed again.

I did find out though that Bigma had gained weight, it was way heavier than when I bought it.

Common Redpoll (female)

Common Redpoll (male)

Comments are always welcome and appreciated.

Wow, those are beautiful and incredible. I just love them. The second and third ones are my favorite.

In the first, is that a type of plastic bird feeder? or a knit bag of seeds or something? Thanks for sharing these.

Beautiful shots, lovely details and colors there, you certainly are getting the best out of that bigma.

Very nice crystal clear shots Heinrich.--charliezap

Heinrich, these are stunning. Nice and sharp and I love the background.

Very nice, Heinrich - crystalline, sharp and perfect photos of a bird I've never seen. Maybe they don't come here given our high sales tax

. Great shots.

Heinrich, these are wonderful to view, the clarity and color gives me the feeling I can reach out and touch them. You better start using that combo more, I have a feeling spring will really bring the birds out there.

Thank you for the kind comments, the feeder is a cloth bag filled with Nyjer seed, The bags are sold filled with seed but I do refill them.

Take care,

Thank you Jer, this winter we have large flocks of them, last winter hardly any and our tax hasn't changed since than.

Take care,
