Trip photos - Gadwall

Posted By Cal Sandfort
It's always a pleasure to return from a trip and see all the wonderful photos posted here. I spent some time traveling around the western US for the holidays and took some photos.

Here's a few :-)

Squirrel

Posted By Cal Sandfort
After Kurt's wonderful Bobcat photo I hesitate to post a miserable squirrel but I like the way the tail came out :-)

Adult, male Merlin - front

Posted By Cal Sandfort
I found this guy snuggled in a tree during a snow storm this afternoon. Crummy, gray light for photos but a neat little bird.

Another Kestrel

Posted By Cal Sandfort
Something unusual happened in Boise today. The sky cleared and the sun came out! So, I took a photo of the only willing subject I could find.

Great shot, James. A lot of different cloud formations going on there.

We went to the duck ponds and it was not just cloudy but foggy too. But, I did get this photo.

You're a master at getting different shapes in a single image. I like it!

GB Heron

This bird was hunkered down against the cold wind.

Cool shots, James. It looks like you're off to a good start. The Kestrel is very sharp and Red-tail shows nice feather pattern.

How many shot in a series will the D100 take? The Canon 10D takes nine.

Nice shots - Cal

Feeder shots - American Goldfinch

Posted By Cal Sandfort
I was trying to get full frame shots at 600mm. The bird, from beak to tail, has to be on the same plane as the lens regardless of f stop to get nice shots. These are 1/4 original resolution.
