Yep, I'd say passable for sure. It's tough to photo birds for a number of reasons. I put-up bird feeders, waterers and iron decorations outside my siding glass door to attract them in close. I pre-focus sometimes on where I believe the bird will be and on a tripod wait to use my remote shudder release. I face south so have the sun in the winter with good light and some protection from wind blowing birds around too much. I attached a couple of my better results. Keep shooting those birds!

Yep. Those are nice and clear. I think I have used a tripod twice all last year. I was at a sharp angle looking down through double pain glass on two of them. I should also use Windex once in awhile. Lol. Maybe if I just used two hands.

Yeah, a clean window and straight-on shots help. That patience and light make a difference it appears. That shot of the White-winged Dove was cool as they are a bird of the Southwest US and I live in Nebraska. He was definitely lost! Thanks for sharing.

It is funny that you mentioned the dove. We have them here and I did have a few shots of one that I took at the same time as the sparrows but they were not that good.

Really, it is a very good glass cleaner. If you can find it, get it in the spray can. And not the plastice spray bottle. I use it in my truck. Morks great!!!
