Spring Breakfast

Early Spring weather is kind of grey and messy, so I've been spending the last few days digging through the archives, looking to see if I can get some of the forgotten photographs of my past out there.  These come from a Spring visit to my parents.  My Mom always has lots of winged friends in the yard thanks to her variety of bird feeders.  She had a few visitors on this day, but most of the photographs I took weren't usable as I made the rookie mistake of trying to shoot the photographs through the glass of the patio door rather than being outside.  I did manage to find a few usable shots, so here they are.  The first photograph was taken at f/10, 1/250sec, ISO 400 at 300mm.  Here is one more photograph of my hungry little friend.
f/8, 1/800sec, ISO 400 at 300mm

It was still early Spring when I took these photographs so the little guy didn't have all of his colour yet, but he still didn't mind to pose for the camera.  A lesson was learned on that day, and I have never tried to photograph birds behind glass since.
