or so it seems. The past few days there are been far fewer birds in the garden. I suspect many have left for their summer retreats. The Cat Bird has not been seen for a couple of days and there are far fewer finches. The Cardinals tend to be year round as are the Doves and a few others.

Thank you. D810 w/Nikkor 200-500 and TC-14E III. I don't always use the TC but I did on these.

Thank you Will. I have a nice location for shooting these. The trees in the background are far enough away to make nice backgrounds.

Those are some beautiful bird shots. Love the yellow bird.
Thank you. The yellow bird is a male Goldfinch. He still had just a touch of tan coloring but had mostly changed to the beautiful yellow.
