Spot the Birdie!
I was getting ready to leave for work on Friday, when I noticed a fluttering out of the corner of my eye. I scanned along the driveway in search of the author, and lo and behold, a pair of American Goldfinch were flitting about, feeding on the Catmint plants.
“Well”, I thought craftily, “I have the camera in the car, maybe I can sneak a shot”.
When I focussed on the area I had seen the birds, I could see nothing but the Catmint edging through the lens. I knew they were still there, so I zoomed in. If you own a simple point and shoot you will know how hard it is to see properly when you zoom. It bounces around.
“To Hell with it” I thought. I took several shots before the birds noticed me and took off.
These are the results
