Well I went looking for the infamous Barred Owl up at Halls Rd. in Whitby, Ontario and sure enough I didn't see him I'm sure he showed himself when I left

Anyway, I ended up getting some shots of some Black Cap Chickadees, at least they are always around

Man those are sharp!!!
And you gotta love the capture in #3...good job :)
 
Great shot, the first one is very sharp. That Halls Rd Barred is the most photographed Owl I know of. Keep trying and if you see any photoogs just ask as it is always there. I imagine he may be gone in a month or so.

Just to motivate you a shot from my last session with him

Damn! I have not posted them yet, except for this missed shot :)

very sharp and clean! excellent timing in the third shot.
 
Photo 3 is extra special, but I also love the cuddliness of the little bird in Photo 4. Makes me want to hold it and keep it as pet (not seriously!) --- it looks like a stuffed toy bird in that one (to me).

Ah, you (pl) and your bird photography - *getting wistful*
 
As always I appreciate the comments.

I'll get the Owl sooner or later :)
 
Joat dont stop shooting these blackcaps, they're amazing. Love the fluffy feather detail in the last shot, its outstanding :thumbup:
 
Awesome shots and detail... what lens where you using?

That would be my Canon 100-400mm L :)

It's hard not to take pics of these guys when they are always around, sometimes it seems as if they follow me....probably because they think I have bird seed.
