It seems so sad to see this majestic bird digging through garbage but I gotta say no matter where he is he's an impressive sight!

I actually like #1 the best, but you have in in b&w and I would prefer color. As far as the rest of the birds, I like #10 and #15 as well. I have to say you have done some great bird shots. What lens are you using?
Hope you have a great Easter, too!

I use a 55 mm - 200 mm nikon lens..just got it with the D90..but i keep it on the D70 wish i had a switched..and yes the no..one is going to be up in color after the little one goes back to school tommorow..the lens is great paid like 169 for it..at Henrys here in Canada..I have been playing with the [link] winter and that is what i got so far..a few more to post.

La-Vita-a-Bella In reply to HeatherWaller-Rivet [2009-04-14 16:51:39 +0000 UTC]

I have a Sigma 70-300mm, which is an okay lens. I haven't tested it much on the new 5DII so I'll have to see if it's very good with birds when it gets a little nicer here.
BTW, the link didn't go through.
