Bushtit
Taken in november. Sigma 100-300f4 at 300mm 1/800th of a sec at f5.6 ISO 500. I love these very tiny little birds and there eyes remind me of predator eyes. I appologize for not being as active on here as I should be be, but I am working 30+ hrs of overtime a pay period.

Love the concentration in the bird's eye; I see why you like them. Good capture.

Fantastic shot! Hope you put it up in Avian...

No apologies necessary, Wade. Love when you can be here and especially when you can post and comment, but hey… work is work, and it sounds like you've got a ton of it.

I also love the little bushtits Wade and yellow eyes on the females that you captured so well. Great job and nice to have you back where you are posting again.
