Female Red Winged Blackbird: ISO 500, 400mm, f/6.3, 1/500
It has been a long time since my last post. I realize that I need to take the time for this hobby of mine.
This was taken in the spring of the busy pond life at a local conservation area in the Quinte region. This mom was keeping a close eye her juvenile forage for food.

This picture was taken the same day that I took the Geese Family photo below.
The turtles seem to be watching this bird rather intently.

Watchful Robin: ISO 800, 400mm, f/6.3, 1/1000
This photo is from the same walk along the fence line in Quinte West last Sunday. I believe it is a different Robin than the one in the previous post.
This one was watching me from afar. Making sure I was doing nothing more than admiring the spring weather with my camera.

Robin with Nesting Material: ISO800, 400mm, f/6.3, 1/1250
Spring is finally here in Quinte West, Ontario! I went for a quick walk this cold morning to find some birds along a fence line. I spotted blackbirds, starlings, chickadees and robins.
This robin was showing off the material it collected to help build the nest in the cedar tree.

It has been a long while since I posted last. This is one of the last photos I have taken and have not shared.
This was taken one bright, cool fall morning down the street from where we live. Maple Leaves were displaying there colours they are famous for.
