    Haven't been able to get out much so the old faithful backyard birdies have been helping me out with a few shots.

    Would like to remind everyone Tim is getting these shots with his 70-200 and converter attached.

    Great job!

    Tim,

    Excellent set. I have to admit, I really enjoy watching and shooting these guys. I'm nowhere near the level of Debbie (Birdlady), but right now, I have 40 packs of suet, 80 lbs of bird seed, and what's left of 10,000 meal worms in my garage that I got to get these beautiful creatures to come to my back yard. :rolleyes:
