That is a male. They are very common where you & I live - have 4 or 5 visit us each day. Just hang out a thistle bag.
Thanks Stardust, will seek out a thistle bag.

"F8 and be there" to shoot many things with film and a good set of primary lens. I use it with my Nikon dslr and the kit zoom to some success. Zooms require some thinking about what f-stop you shoot at. Of course it depends on what you want for DOF.

Was coming home today and almost ran over this bird sitting in the road. Only the second time this year I have seen it. in the past has immediately flown away when a human shows up. Birders, if you know what bird this is, please pass along.
I really only got one shot off before this bird flew away. It is heavily cropped to get it this size.
Thanks in advance for looking.

All three are beautiful. I am torn between #1 and #2. Cannot decide which to chose. Good job.

Took these at a local park recently. It was very hot so the Elk and Bison were staying very much in the shade to keep cool. Could not get anything on the Bison as they looked like mounds of dirt in the tall grasses. But Elk gave a show for those who entered into the park.

I have purchased only small stuff but have very surprised by the speed, and understated quality. They are very good use and I will use again.

sign in the window says open but the sign hanging out front says closed, which is it?
Actually it was off season so most stores along the street were closed, waiting for the tourist season to begin about a month later.

elliott937, you are very accurate in what you say. Most of our problems are located in the two areas you describe, both of which have historical sites not to be missed. But if you are very aware of your surroundings you can do quite abit. Most of the people are wonderful to talk to and work with.
To the OP, check out Forest Park area while here. Home to the 1904 Worlds Fair, has some wonderful architecture to see and a world class zoo that is free.

The Arch area, Old Courthouse area, the Busch stadium area, even the Brewery will be pretty safe. Of course like any where, keep eyes open and be aware of surroundings.

Going to St. Louis for a ballgame and looking for photo ideas, primarily angles/positions to shoot the arch from (also: warehouses, churches, funky neighborhoods, etc).
ref: East St. Louis - this place has been known to be worse than Chicago and L.A. combined. And though I'd be just across the river -- with expensive camera gear -- how bad is it? I'd probably be over there at 1:00 am.
Thanks

Not a safe place to be at 1:00 in the morning. Keep equipment in the trunk and keep head down if must go. Best time to go would be maybe 8:00 a.m. till maybe noon. Still need to be very watchful.
