    A little blue.

    I haven't had a lot of luck or success these last couple weeks, other than these 2 birds. I'm extremely happy with the bluebird shots but am still waiting for the perfect blue jay shot in a tree. It will happen some day.

    The bluebird shots are very nice. Blue Jays are tough for some reason. I have them screaming at me in the yard nearly every day and yet I have no good shots of them. Must be a very wary bird??? - TF

    Both subjects are extremely tough for me to stalk as well.

    Nice job. Keep at them!

    Re: A little blue.

    Thanks, guys. I went back again today and there were at least a dozen bluebirds grouped up. They're definitely getting ready to head south.

    There is a Bluejay staying here in the area. Seems like when he is in a perfect shootable spot, I almost get focused before he takes off. Wonder if it is the focus motor . I keep trying.
