I spent a marvelous morning creating images out of an open window at the back of the house here in Sackville, NB. A feeder attracts birds to this particular area of the garden and the ground feeders like this White-throated Sparrow scurry around after fallen seeds. For this "macro" image I used the 500mm F4 with 1.4x tc. I had none with a head turn towards me so had to go with this one.
Comments welcome!
