Hey Dave: I think he might have been doing just that! Thanks for your remarks.

Dave: Sorry to take so long. I love this little bug. I see you're having fun with the macro attachments. I may have to get a macro lens someday. I used to have them always. If I had one I'm not sure I could do this well.

Brigette: I was at the minimum focusing distance for the lens which is just a bit less than 6-feet. I don't believe these frogs are poisonous. The much smaller Poison-Dart frogs are what you are thinking of. The poisonous frogs were in abundance at this area as well. Thank you for your kind remarks.

Yamil: Wonderful and unique image! I wish we had seen some of these in our travels. My wife is very anxious to see them. We did see a few Snail Kites in Florida in February. We may have to travel back to wine country just so we can see the Northern California birds again.

Yamil: Great shot! These birds are very hard to catch out in the open. I kept trying to catch one in Aspen last week. No luck. They are such beautiful animals. Could you email me at thelordstoo@comcast.net? I would like to discuss or trip to Costa Rica in September. If you do not wish to do this, I understand.

Dave: This little bird was a hoot. He would come up with the most outrageous twigs and try to fit them through the hole in the nest box. Probably 75% of them were dropped but he kept trying. Thanks again for the encouragement.

Hey Dave: I didn't even know they were in the mountains as we never see them here. It's a bit warmer over by Aspen which may be the reason. Thanks for the kind remarks.

Thanks Dwight. He was a wonderful little subject. After a while he just ignored me and my flash. This is a crop so I probably could easily clean up the edge. I wish you could see a 100% crop of this shot, it is really quite sharp.

Dwight: That's some really nice breeding plumage. I always thought the Cattle Egrets were pretty in the spring. Thank you very much for your kind remarks on my House Finch shot. ISO 400 does look nice out of this particular camera. You are correct, though, when they are exposed properly, they all look good at 400.

Michael: No, the wife got tired of tossing the birds past the front of the lens, though. Just kidding. There were around 50,000 geese in the area. No patience required at all, just have a large memory card. Thank you for the kind comment, however.

Mike: This kit did eventually step out of the rocks after checking me out for a minute or two. The vixen mother wasn't about so it was being bad in doing so. They are an amazing blend of dog and cat which makes them very appealing to watch. Mom moved them somewhere else now and we haven't found them again. Thank you very much for your kind and thoughtful remarks.

Yamil: Gorgeous capture. We get these in summer but they go up high in the mountains and scatter. Thank you for your gracious comments on my Eared Grebe. I need to talk to you about appropriate rainwear for our trip to Costa Rica in September. I am now taking a 1D MKIII and a 400 f/5.6 on the trip.
