Some birds and things from yesterday

Posted By: photolady95, 04-13-2014, 08:51 AM

Some shots I took yesterday playing around outside with camera and tripod. One hand held with K-x and Pentax A 50mm f2. The birds were shot at ISO 500/800, Shutter speed @1/1000, and aperture 7.1. Flower was ISO 200, Shutter speed 1/180s, and aperture f9.0. Flash used on flower.

Red Bellied Woodpecker/female. Takes a rest or dusts off.


Female Northern Cardinal.

It's been in the 80s here for a few days since Friday. I love spring when the weather turns and the sun shines. I love my sunshine!

I'm going on a birding trip on Thursday. First real birding of the year for me. I'll share pictures if I get anything good.

Yes, please share. I have some other bird shots I got that day but their heads are not in sharp focus. Like the Blue Jay below:

Not going to be able to go. I blew the brake lines out on my car, thought I would be able to get it fixed. But today I found out that the repair would cost more than the car is worth. So until I figure out a way to get a new car, no birding for me.

I got 15 Upstate NY Winters out of it. I think I got my money's worth.
