They begin to migrate in August, so I'm trying to enjoy them while I can. The red is reflected from the red feeder nearby.

Someone is getting pretty good with one of my favorite combo .... When I first got my 200-500 I went to Vegas .., the little White Wedding Chappel .., to get my 8!0 and my 200-500 married ...they have been together ever since ..... My first two weeks I used the lens hand held before ever bringing in the Ménage a Trois (threesome) THE TRIPOD ......, now we are a happy family ...

Very nice shots ....
