it certainly is, especially since only the center sensor is available and autofocus is slow.....very few keepers out of a couple hundred attempts. We tried to get closer but they would fly away every time.

This is my first and only "little bird" shot, i think it is a "Blue tit", but here in Italy we call it "Cinciallegra" which reminds a "really happy bird" :D!
Coff coff, i take this shot while i was... in the bathroom looking out the window!

That one's really nice Joel. You timed this one just right to have the right pose.

Thanks Dave, I like the backgrounds in my yard the best in fall and spring....the color is so nice.
This one of an American Goldfinch with the out of focus golden leaves on the tress in the BG is another one I took recently that I like.

Joel, those are really great! Backgrounds as you say are perfect for their subjects.
i ran out of seed in my feeder so this is the only guy that came by today. he wasnt very cooperative as he was always facing away. i think it still came out pretty good for 3200 ISO
