My waiting paid off

Uploaded: November 22, 2009

Description

Here's one for Stefania. I couldn't get around the other side to show you his catch, hope you can see it OK. I tell you they are such good yard workers. I guess I'll have to put this one in "Catch-All". Lens aperture F/4.5, shutter speed 1/202sec, focal length 24mm.

Thank you. I really enjoy the birds coming to the yard. Last-night the possum was "knocking" as the back door, then it held on with one hand & just leant there waiting for me. I was to slow to get a picture. #8327281
