Today's shots should be called a Tale of Two Spots - 40 miles apart. This bluebird shot I grabbed as I came home from walking just before 8 a.m. Then we decided to take a chance that Mt. Magazine got the snow we didn't, ate breakfast, grabbed the cameras, and drove over. Got greyer all the way!
@brian365 I love the zoom on this SX50 - can go from a 1/2" flower to a bird at the top of the tree fairly easily (though may have to crop a little) and the camera is light for walking. It's been a real gem.
