Nice set, Heinrich. Those grackles can sure find the bugs!

Very enjoyable series. Which 1.4TC did you use?

**Sailor** · 06-08-2020, 01:23 PM

A great collection of shot, Heinrich. I especially like the fourth one of a grackle, even though when we were sailing and our boat was docked in a marina that became infested with the critters they were the bane of my existence for a time.

The 300 + 1.4 tc combo is well utilized in this series .

Google "Super Glue"... it's your friend in these situations.

I had given that some though previously but am still looking for the appropriate applicator.

Trust me a shaggy roller works wonders, not from personal experience... but I'm led to believe by other learned folk.

Outstanding! Nice work Heinrich! If I had to pick a favorite it'd be the House finch.

**ToddK** · 06-10-2020, 06:52 AM

These are all terrific images Heinrich! Well done.

I love the muted background of the first one Heinrich. The pose is special too. Enjoyed the whole series.
