Corky, thank you so very much for your sweet, generous comment, but I've seen your work, and it couldn't be any more beautiful! I'd love to see your hummingbird moth images!!
Thanks, Donna, but they were very exceptional images! I have quite a few images that I sometimes think about posting and never seem to get around to it, especially in the warm months and recently have been trying to take some decent images of an American Redstart hen or a young male for the last several days, I hope it will stick around another day or so and give me another chance to improve on the few images that I have taken. I have been updating Angela on my recent attempts and pretty funny as this morning I was staking out the bird bath as that is where most of my images so far have been taken and heard a pecking sound behind me and there it was about two feet from me on top of our covered grill feasting on what appeared to be a very small grub or could have been the body of some little small moths that have been feeding all day mostly at several large lantana plants! I had little choice but to watch because if I raised the camera to that level it would fly and anyway believe that it was so close that the lens would not have focused on it. Hope you guys are experiencing some nice weather and having fun. Take care!
