    Greetings from the SF Bay Area!

    Hello everyone! I've been repeatedly told that THIS is the premier forum for bird photography and that I should join in and see whats going on. So hello to all and hopefully I'll make a few new friends along the way! Happy shooting everyone! :):):)

    Thanks Rene! Yeah I was looking to get more constructive critiques from a more "bird-centric" forum. (Don't tell the FM folks I said that LOL) :) I hope not to post too many tired old pics from FM here. Only my best :D:D:D

    Welcome Conrad. I too just joined and I'm definitely enjoying all the reading. I also live in the bay area - I'm sure we've shot in many of the same spots! I'm looking forward to seeing your work.

    Hey Hank! I hope to share some worthy images. A fellow bay area guy eh? Well we'll have to shoot sometime! I do most of my shooting at Baylands and Don Edwards in the South Bay (I'm in Milpitas) :D:D:D

    Welcome Conrad. Yes, BPN is best place to get good constructive feedback. quality over quantity. I dont hang out at nature&wildlife on FM...but your name sounded familiar as I lurk out on the canon gear forum. Thankfully, you use your real name there :-)

    Looking forward to seeing your work.

    That is what I meant. Your name here sounded familiar because it was same as in FM.

    Oh I'm sorry Kaustubh I misunderstood LOL I am looking into a bird calling setup I can use in the field as most of my shooting has involve extensive hiking with poor results. I hope to get some help with birders here. Have a great weekend!
