From the back yard
The doves that are wintering with us. Toughest doves ever. They had 4 little ones last year, we know one was eaten, we found the feathers, the other three likely migrated south.




I've been trying for while to get these guys, today a few posed for me.

Evening Grosbeaks male and female






We have Blue Jays all day every day. I guess this one is the Blue Jay of the day.

Was time to dust off the ol' K-50 again so when this Red-breasted Sapsucker landed on one of our maple trees I attached my DA* 300MM to it and snapped a few off our front porch.

I wasn't going to post these here, it wasn't at my feeders... but it was in my yard... so I guess I'm legal.

K-3 and DA 55-300 PLM and HD DA 1.4 TC at 364mm

I was out in the shop, planing some wood when I noticed this guy on a tree nearby. So, run in the house grab the camera, try and sneak out for some images. He was very wary, but he let me have a few. -10ºC





at 400mm


Looking up @ 294mm

Australian Magpie (misnamed, as it is not a corvid but a member of the Artamidae family - butcherbirds, currawongs, woodswallows, etc). These are a very familiar sight and sound in Australia (lovely carolling call). Many people befriend them. Which is a good policy because if they don't know you they might swoop you during the breeding season! KP + DA 55-300 PLM
