I'm not really sure I like these. The weather was really goofy, one minute the sun was out and the next it was overcast. The Robin, as can be seen, is in bright sunlight however the Sparrow is in complete overcast and the shots were taken 6 minutes apart.

And, yes, I know the Robin's head is a touch soft. All my fault, the focus point was on his chest.

Thanks, Charlie. I'm still not really happy with them but what the heck, they could be worse I guess.

We are, once again, experiencing a goofy winter. Those were shot from my deck, and it was 72 degrees when I was out there shooting them. Even right now (9:15 pm) it's still 70 degrees outside. Torrential rain forecast for tonight and tomorrow, and a cold front comes through Sunday night. They keep changing the forecast but right now are calling for snow, sleet, and rain Sunday night and Monday. The high Monday is supposed to be in the low 40's. Still better than 16, but last weekend I was out shooting and it was 25 degrees which isn't a whole lot better
