It finally felt a little like spring yesterday and even the birds were feeling it.

:-)

Comments welcome and appreciated!

  Love the color and tonality, lighting and detail, Mike.

Have you ever used an AlienBees Bokeh, plug-in to soften the background like an expensive f2.8 or wider lens? It works well with sharp images, but is nearly impossible with those that aren't...I've learned the hard way.

A fast lens put all the focus on the bird and none on the background.
