A morning at the bird feeder
Feb 9, 2023 17:15:08   #
Daniel Veazey Loc: Little Rock, Arkansas
 
Gear: Fujifilm X-T5 | 50-140mm f/2.8

I stopped down the lens to f/4 and f/5.6 for these to maximize sharpness. Shutter speed was 1/1000, and auto ISO was coming in anywhere from 1000 to 1600, depending on how much cloud cover there was at any particular moment.

The birds are:
Pine Warbler
Carolina Chickadee
Red-breasted Nuthatch
Male House Finch
Female House Finch
Tufted Titmouse

The last photo is of a fellow bird enthusiast.

A morning well spent, Daniel! Hopefully your cat is just a spectator.

Beautiful set, even the Cat. Are you sure about the first one? Looks like an American Goldfinch to me

It might be. I'm no expert.

All quite excellent shots.

hmmm...does the cat also consider this a "feeder" by any chance?

I looked at some more photos I took of the same bird, and I think you're right. I think it is an American Goldfinch.

Nice photos. But I prefer mine without feeders in the frame. They usually perch in nearby foliage before approaching the feeder and I try to catch them there.
