Took 386 "test" shots this morning! Most went beyond limits of the camera (so am not doing store original) and I still have to learn which setting will work best for me, but thought these were cute enough to share.
Have included two taken with SLR at 250mm so you can appreciate the distance! (uploading 6)

Thanks all. It was so much fun, I'm going out again this afternoon in 90-degree heat. I don't expect to find as much wildlife activity. At least I figured out a few settings while I was home for lunch :)

Nice shots, Linda. That's one gem of a long lens on that camera. Did you do these hand-held?

Thanks Treepusher and Carolina Wings! Yes, handheld. Just can't be bothered with a tripod - ha!

Thanks for viewing. Joe and lotsa50. I have had quite an incredible run of luck being in the right place at the right time for wildlife the past few months. Even saw a coyote near the road in fenced field at 10 a.m. on Sunday!
Just the experience of being out in nature is such a great reward in itself and I feel so lucky to live in an area with so much of it; any halfway decent photo is a bonus!
