The usual

[AIRIC]

Well, I woke up at 7am, got dressed, grab the camera bag and headed out the door only to find it was raining Back to bed and I finally woke up again at 10am. The weather was looking better so I headed down to Lyndeshore for some fast shots before I started some chores around the house. Tomorrow Natalie and Nathan celebrate their first communion so it will be a little busy around the house.

This little Chippie was really friendly and almost hopped onto the lens.

For the first time in a long time I walked the bird feeder trail with a wide-angle lens instead of the telephoto.

I think this is the first year I have stopped to shoot the Trilliums.

I kind of over did this one but was to lazy too go back and re-edit it.

Then it was off to Halls Rd. to find the Turkeys and I was lucky

Gobble, Gobble

If I’m lucky and get up early tomorrow I may be able to get in a few photos before the celebration. If not I’m sure I will have a Natalie/Nathan shot to share tomorrow.

Cheers,

Eric

wow, resident turkey at Halls Rd.. very cool! Did you use a tripod today? extra sharp shots!

 

[AIRIC]

When have you ever seen me use a tripod, like never. Can't stand them as I don't have the freedom to move. There are four Turkeys, 1 male and 3 female that hang around the Halls Rd. North path. They have been there for 3 weeks or so. I don't even use the damn $150 manfrotto monopod I bought. I only used it once at the zoo as the animals never move.
