Last Saturday my friend and I were walking the bike trail by my home, looking for birds to "capture". Noticed there were quite a few small Red Crested Kinglet's bouncing around.
I did not notice till I was reviewing the captures that the Kinglet's were chasing the bugs.
Hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

Good captures. What a way to make a living! Seeing birds chasing bugs makes me appreciate food stores.

Excellent shots, Homer! I realize you didn't ask for suggestions but I took the liberty of snapping your shot up a bit. I hope you don't mind. I brightened it up and added a very small amount of saturation.

Papa Joe first I thank you for your kind response, I tried in LR 5 increasing the exposure, can you tell me how you brightened the bird, and the increase in saturation?

Hi Homer,
I used Photoshop Elements. Just a matter of adjusting 'lighting' by upping the brightness a bit and under the 'adjust color' option, I chose 'saturation' and increased it slightly. I realize I should have first had your permission to do that, but 'the devil made me do it' :) . I'm happy you didn't mind.

I don't mind, part of the learning curve, the Kinglet needed a little something to make it "pop" and I think you found it.
Went back and experimented with the original.
I think I like it a lot.
