Been having fun lately with the DA*300

It's Feeding Time For Lucky Number 7
These birds do this with precision! This whole "ram the food down the throat" trick transpires all in a matter of about a 1/2 second!

f/6.3, 800th SS, ISO-1000


This one was with the Tamron 1.4 TC attached to the *300
f/5.6, 1000th SS, ISO-500


f/5.6, 800th SS, ISO-640

I enjoy looking at bird pictures and enjoyed looking at these also. I really liked the sparrow and the chickadee.

Beautiful shots Joe! I Really like #1. It's like "will my head fit". Also I like #2 as it gives a real perspective. Looks like Momma is very busy with the babies.

Very enjoyable series. I loved them all but that little sparrow is just gorgeous. The first is really cool, and the bed-head chickadee is sweet.
