Downy Woodie

Post by oldcoot »

Sure is good to be back behind the Camera. Our light is not very actinic yet, and OC only has a hour and a half of sufficient quality to shoot.

Image was shot at ISO 800, F-10, 1/100

But hey, OC is back......................John

Great pics OC!

I have a carolina wren at my feeders this winter! During the summer, I heard my little wrens making a fuss....looked out to see this HUGE wren in their territory! He must have decided to stay the winter....or likes my heated bird-bath!....p :wink:
