Nice shots Norm, the Martin is so cute. Are they hard to find or do they hang around the feeding areas ?

They hang around the garbage bins and bird feeding areas, sometimes. Animals like this have a territory they walk. So seeing them is alway hit and miss. However, they are relatively tame for wild animals. There are places in the park where if you have 3 hours I can pretty much guarantee you'll see them. This one, I have seen his tracks many times, I saw him running across the picnic area far away once, but this is the first time I've seen him up close.

Thanks Bob, that adapter combined with good lens is a wonderful thing.
