fledgling with father
I was a little more patient this morning and was able to get a shot of father and son. As you can see, the little guy is still expecting to be fed. He does eat a little on his own, though. (Note the difference in lighting from yesterday. Yesterday it was raining but bright. This morning is overcast and darker. (ISO 800, 200mm, shot handheld through glass door))
Note: I later found that this was a second baby and possibly a female since the feathers weren’t as red.
wilson warbler
As I started to make breakfast, I noticed movement in the Creosote bush outside the kitchen window. What a treat to see this tiny little bird. The internet revealed that it was a Wilson’s Warbler. I shot through the glass with a Sigma 18-200mm lens at 200mm.
