Red-winged Blackbird

I have not had much time for photos lately, but here is a quick shot of a red-wing that I shot out the window yesterday.

Spider with new macro combo

Posted By Tyler Allred

Hi all. I decided to try my 200mm Micro Nikkor with TC-201 teleconverter tonight. I don't know why I never thought of this before. The teleconverter makes everything manual, but it works pretty well. Here are a couple of images of a small spider (<1/4 inch) that I found tonight. This one is full frame, but reduced from 3008x2000 pixels to 800x532.

Mourning Dove

Posted By Tyler Allred

Taken today, with my new 70-200mm VR. I am looking for a TC-20EII teleconverter to use with this new lens... it will replace my 80-400mm VR (maybe?). Anyone have one for sale?

Earwig

At least that is what we call them. This one is full frame, reduced to fit this forum.

Prey

Posted By Tyler Allred

This small insect (only about 1/16th inch from wingtips to head) was stuck on the thread of the spider web. I would guess it has been eaten by now. It looks as though it has a dark face on its belly, with eyes and such. I didn't notice it until I dumped the pics to the PC.
Cheers,

Porcupine in a Tree

Posted By Tyler Allred

This porcupine was sitting in the crotch of a tree, about 20 feet up. I thought it was pretty cute.
