the birds were out in great numbers at the county park today with temps around 40 and lots of people putting out see for them to munch on. an easy meal compared to digging through snow in freezing cold temperatures. they are quite used to humans in this nature center area so it's a bit like shooting fish in a barrel. that being said I got very few really sharp shots because of my 70-200 lens and it's weight. I do so love the dof it gives though. should have maybe attached the monopod!
