Title: Male Rose-Breasted Grosbeak
Post by: gjtoth on May 02, 2008, 07:57:52 PM
Please, please, please forgive the quality of these shots. I was shooting some macros when I just happened to glance at my feeding station. This guy has never been there before and I was so excited I racked-out and started shooting. Luckily, the IS was on. Unluckily, I'm not the coolest in a situation that requires me to shift gears real fast and I didn't use a tripod and it was pouring down rain. They're all freehand. The last three in this series show him and a male cardinal attempting to stake a claim. I can't wait for him to come back when it's not raining!

My goodness, Gary! 

You sure did manage to capture some good ones.  I love the cardinal and the grosbeak staking their claim!  LOL

Just love your bird photos, Gary.

Thanks, Pat.  I love taking 'em.  As I said in my intro, "It keeps me focused on God's creations."  Only God can make something that beautiful.  ONLY God.
