    Default Hello from Manchester, CT

    Hailing from Manchester (CT), I'm new to birding and bird photography. Current equipment:

    + Canon 7D
    + Canon 300mm f/4.0L with IS
    + Nikon Monarch ATB binoculars
    + Vortex Razor 85mm spotting scope

    Just joined Hartford Audubon Society and looking forward to some meetings and outings.
